My father raced this skiff The Fox (not to be confused with the Lewis Bros Fox) at Cabarita.

Could anyone shed any light on its builder?

Thank you.

looks like it has a front seat or has been converted from a runabout to create a skiff to race.

Do you think that because of its length?

That is the engine cover we can see forward of the Dodge six. Although only a young boy, I clearly remember the sliding cover(s).
