[ianl]

Gday Fellas! Hoping for a hand finding some information on a Skeeter hawk limited edition 82 model rated to 85hp. It also has wrangler stickers on it . I cant find any info on the Internet and skeeter Australia haven't been much help .
I emailed skeeter u.s and they sent info for a different model and he didn't know what i was talking about . I'm about to pull her down and put a new transom in and refurbish the whole boat paint and all so i was just after photos of the same model if any one knows any info and can help out it would be greatly appreciated . I'm also gonna put photos of the rebuild up for you guys to see so cheers fellas Ian p.s how do i add photos

If your needing any parts or decals talk to Richard at Tinys Fiberglass on old Skeeter Parts - he has a bunch! http://www.tinysfiberglass.com/

Also on my Website I have built some Skeeter History with owners images from each decade and am currently working on an archieve for each model year with brochures, owner pics and more. http://www.dougvahrenberg.com/Skeeter.html

Also add this to the Boat Restoration Forum here on the BBC. North Texas Fiberglass Repair does a good job helping there and has a wealth of info.

You have to host the images on a photo hosting site like PhotoBucker or ShutterFly. Once Hosted then you right click on the image and go to Properties then copy the Link. Come back to the BBC click on Inser Image (Yellow button with Mountain and Sun) and paste the link in the middle between the brackets. And your picture will be added.

I spent the summer of 1987 in Australia as Student Ambassador/Exchange Student and was in Sydney for a short peroid. I love your country it was alot of fun and very interesting learning expierence.

The Skeeter Hawk started in the late 1960's and continued into the 1970's. I don't know the complete history but there are several examples on my Skeeter Page under 1960s and 1970s that I have collected.
