    I couldn't figure out how to post the link but if you want to watch a video of an aired out cabover google Chris Applebee. If you want to watch one in a race in Russia google Janos Feil.

    Best Regards,
    Ron

    i remember when Dieter Schultz came over with Dieter Konig. Dieter Schultz stayed and to make some money built a real nice cabin cruiser outside back behind Bud Wiget's shop. He sold the boat and was able to spend some time in the USA.

He built several at Sid's shop, built some at Ed Harvey's shop next to Walt Blankenstiens shop in Lakeland, I bought one of them, that may be why it is listed as a Sid-craft. Dieter was ahead of his time for sure with cabovers and the bubble boats.
    Thanks Bud..... Cool History.

    Doesn't the one you are referring go from right to left ? I thought it was in a Wayne Baldwin thread at BRF. I looked and searched but couldn't find it.

    Yes there is, It was my D Konig we were working on and tested in the canal a block or so away from Konig factory. I miss those day's at factory, but still talk today with some of the workers from that time. Not sure where the picture is on the web though
