1922

Year: 1922
Engine: #3863
Length:
Wood: Cypress and White Oak
This Dippy has been lovingly cared
for and has had only
four owners since 1922. Every bit of hardware, down to
the
floorboard screws has been saved to this day, aside from the oars,
#2881 bears all the hardware it had when it left the D.P. Factory.
When it
required hull restoration, it was done by Charlie Amey, an
original factory
planker. The boat was nameless until purchased by
the Wentges in the
mid-90\'s. She now bears the proud name
\"Frankees\" after my Mother and
Father who loved cruising around
Lake Joseph; each in their own \"Dippy\".
Seating in the dippy has been
made comfortable through black leather
cushions.
This
Uncle Sam had been the Port Carling Dippy
Factory\'s demonstrator boat. The
engine, a 3.5 h.p., has been maintained by Paul
Doddington since the mid-90\'s.The
trailer and bumpers are included in the selling price.
Photos
and history compiled will be sold with the boat.
PRICE: $26,500.
