[QUOTE="jdret, post: 168511, member: 4110"] While I wish I was posting some progress on my Duracraft, life has kept me incredibly busy the last three months. BUT, I just wanted to share a tin gem I rescued this week, a 1956 Feathercraft Golden Rocket, isn't she COOL 8) 8) !!! The fella I purchased it from had planned to cut the top metal out and use it as a fishing boat for him and his son. Luckily his mantelligence kicked in and he realized it would have the rigidity of a paper bag when he was done. Unfortunately the previous owners before him did not recognize it for what it was, camouflaged it and used it as a duck boat for 4 years. Well, she's in safe hands now. This boat was number 98 on the assembly floor in 1956, the only year they were made. Enjoy!! [/QUOTE]
