The boat

Experience time travel back to Midcentury boating with Wildlee, my beautiful period correct 1964 Glasspar Avalon with the original Mercury 1000 Tower Of Power that has recently undergone extensive servicing to ensure it runs like new. This is a great boat to cruise the bay in style and is very nimble and fun to drive with the glasspar pennant proudly waving over the avocado green and white gelcoat on the bow taking you back to simpler times. Seats 4 and is safe for up to 6 adults cruising and is great to take the family out for some tubing, boats and bass/halibut fishing with a couple buddies, watch a Humphries by the Bay Summer Concert or enjoy a double date to Bali Hai.

Don't book this boat to just be thrifty as it does not have modern amenities like high powered bluetooth stereos, whisper quiet engines, fully carpeted interiors, with room to stow lots of bags, hydraulic trim and it is weight sensitive at speed. Book this boat because you want to experience a fast vintage boat and take in the sounds of a triple carbureted inline 6 two stroke that reminds you of a boat you grew up on. First time boaters this is not the boat for you, I will only rent to experienced drivers who ideally own or have owned a powerboat of their own as it is only original once.
