Do you have a soft spot for history? Well here's your chance to own a piece like no other! This counter stern ferry was constructed circa 1912 and is still going strong today! Pretty as a picture, this boat presents better then most boats less then half its age and the motor is none other then a legendary Gardner shaft drive (By far most of the most reliable engines ever built).
