Yeah Bart’s just about one of all the earlier models Jr left here. The Gator he sold to Ronnie Grabbe, but too small for The Ron. And Thor (Qld) had one of the 2 piece StingRays now in Vic i think via Canberra, probably the one Stansy has now. I think Kenny Powell had one too but that could have been sold to Thor.

Bloody canoes have a good life eh.

At Inland we have one of his two piece canoes, a Stingray, Stansy picked it up from a guy in Canberra. Now owned by another Inlander!

And that 2 piece bolt together Gator of Karels is in Mooloolaba ORCC’s shed still today. I used to borrow it before i bought my first Oc1 and in it’s day, it was a pretty cool canoe, did my very first Moffat’s Run in the Gator, blue grey it was. Not allowed to add to my collection of OC1’s anymore or it would be home at my place. Mrs Rambo drew the line at 3. waahhhhh,,, boo hoo…. and one other she doesn’t know about …hehe
