A Toon by any other name, just couldn't be....

From yard scrap to the water was no simple task for this fine vessel. In early summer of 2007 a fellow junkie discovered this 23’ Hurricane tri-hull fiberglass boat under some neighbors weeds.

With the excitement of Masterblaster and CapitanBS they dragged the boat out of the shallows of a small grave and began restoration at Lovin’s house. After about 6 hours of some small labor and a few beers the excitement for most fell short of having even the bilge pump working. The boat began to sink into the abyss of another shallow grave when Capehenry and Torr decided that the Southern end of Chesapeake was the wrong place to accomplish the large task.

The swamp infested hull was dragged to the property of Capehenry where a $50 dollar motor was installed. Yes $50. That’s a story in itself, but now we have a 85hp 1988 Johnson motor installed.

Now for the three hour tour. We floated the toon at Pungo marine and determined it to be sea worth. Since this mid-summer adventure we have cleaned up the hull and laid Hydro-Tuff mats down on the deck and recovered the seats. Now she is one of the finer vessels that plague the Virginia Beach Ocean front.
