They were built in 1959/60 to a Glen L design taken from the March 1958 Popular Mechanics magazine One boat was slightly smaller than the other and was sold. The other (Swish) spent a lot of its time around Palm Beach (NSW) from early 1950s to around 1963 and then at at Wrights Beach, St Georges Basin. Swish was sold around 1972 and was last seen in a boat/car yard in Nowra around that time.
Kate's father built the boats and she would like to know if they are still around. If you can help, let me know and I will pass on Kate's phone number.
These really are a couple of neat boats!
