Won the Stanley Easter Cup for best non-professional restoration of an antique boat. Won 1st place in her class of “Launch,” and won the coveted “Peoples Choice-Best of Show” in the prestigious Les Cheneaux Boat Show. “Aloha” has only had two owners since her 7,000 hour, PRIME restoration and re-launching in 1987. She has been in climate protected storage on her custom-built trailer. “Aloha” is in show-worthy condition still to this day. Powered by a fully restored 1926 Red-Wing 2-cylinder, 8-hp 850 RPM gasoline engine. +90% original condition other than upholstery, which is marine grade vinyl rather then the original 1905 vintage leather.
