Vietnam Era PBR 721 Resurrected

Post by 6MM-Intl » Wed Oct 10, 2007 12:24 am

Just wanted to tell eveyrone about my brothers PBR that he rebuilt and now plies the waters of New Yorks long island sound in. A lot of sweat and money went into restoring this classic swamp beast and he is now the happy sailor.

Check it out and or contact him direct.

Thanks for looking.

That is something. Bet it turns a few heads when cruising around.

I tried to sign his guestbook, but looks like some machine posts have loaded it up it with junk and can't be signed.

Seeme its about every other trip, mostly when he shoots the propane spark plug actuated twin fifties and other boaters freak out, or when he pulls into bigger harbors.
