The metal name badges will be difficult to find. The wooden "burgee" behind the badges to which they mount is 3/8" marine plywood - same as the hull planking, etc... I can get a pattern for you.

Re: Thompson Boat Rally 2017
The flood did not damper the enthusiasm of the Thompson Boat Rally on 24 June 2017. It rained and rained and rained and rained and rained. And then it rained some more. There were 19 watercraft on display during some or all of the Rally - 15 Thompson, 2 T & T, 1 Barnes, and 1 Dunphy. The spectat...

Re: Offshore Rub Rail
The metal is aluminum, not stainless steel. And yes there is a little lip on the vinyl that goes up onto the top side of the deck plywood.

Re: What is it
Welcome aboard.
Photos must be uploaded to a photo server such as Photobucket before they can be downloaded to this forum
Look for the HULL ID stamped into the wood of the transom, inside the boat. Also look for a metal OBC tag with maximum HP and weight capacities.

Re: Thompson Boat Rally 2017
I am not sure how many will show up. But pre-registration is dismal at best with only 6 signed up thus far. That does not include the 4 or 5 that I will bring.
Two years ago there were 32 watercraft at the Rally.

Soooooo, if you did NOT get one, please let me know ASAP and I will email or fax it to you (or send thru the mail). Please spread th...
