Our Wood Boats

We enjoy boating, however, I find they do not make 'em like they used to. We collect and use vintage crafts and antique and classic outboard motors. I find they are more robust and much more stylish than their modern counterparts.

Pictured here are my 1958 Eaton's Viking Boat (l) and Motor combo with a 1958 12 hp Eaton's Viking Outboard
and my 1954 Canadain Challenger (r) with a nice original 1958 25 hp Eaton's Viking Outboard.

 

These are our boats...

Our 1954 Canadian Challenger powered by a 1957 Johson Javelin, 35 hp.

Because everyone needs an aluminum boat!
Pictured here is my 1960s 14' Viking Crusader powered here by my 1936 8.5 hp Viking.
This boat was built in the 1960s by Thornes of Windsor, Ontario and was sold by Eaton's.
