Melon,

We had a Caporn wooden clinker at Southport in the early 60's. Looked about the shape of your boat but beautiful inlaid deck and the whole boat natural gleaming varnish wood finish.

Had a side-valve Ford direct drive NO CLUTCH.

The starter motor got a real workout with about 50 stops and starts during a day out skiing. Every pick-up meant shutting the motor down and gliding up to the skier in the water then starting again when they were ready - wonder we never chopped someone's foot off!
