***PRICE REDUCED, NEED MONEY FOR RACING!***
This boat has some GREAT history behind it. This boat was built in the early 70's by the famous Clark Maloof for the 1968 National High Point Champion Steve Fitts. It was raced by Steve into the late 70's at least as late as 1978. After talking to Steve, this may very well have been his last boat which would explain the great condition its in. From what I was told this boat was painted, as it is now, and hung on the wall of a restaurant in New Hampshire. It stayed there for about 20 years before being sold to two different people before me. I am the first one to ever find history on this beautiful boat. Being a DSR it was built to run a Mercury Mark 55h. The bottom of the boat is solid red and there is evidence that the sides may have been red at one point too. The boat also has a WC (Wilcox-Crittenton) cast steering wheel, but no other hardware. The boat itself is in AMAZING condition considering its 30+ years old. When I bough it, I knew nothing about it, I just thought it would be a great cottage boat. The only thing I can think of is what looks to be paint bubbling or pealing with a temporary fix (see pic). I recently noticed from looking inside it, it appears the top decking was replaced at some point in time, over 25 years ago. It was done by someone who knew what they were doing, considering you can't tell from looking on the outside, one bit.
The first two pictures attached were take at the Regional Championships on Flagstaff Lake in Stratton, Me in 1978 by Peter Crowley.
I am going to race CSH this season, so right now money it TIGHT trying to get everything I need. I really need to see this go so I am entertaining offers as I may need the money. I am looking for $1,000 OBO (it is 'or best offer' so just send me one, best reasonable offer will take it), will consider Yamato 80 or similar engine, CSH props, or CSH trailer in partial or full trade. The boat is in Windham Maine. and I have no trailer to sell with the boat, we can also meet people to probably a 150-200 miles radius.

I have this boat posted on both BoatRacingFacts.com and HydroRacer.net. If this boat sells for cash, 10% will be donated to the responsible site.
