Brown Sugar

She is a sweet 1974 Mandella Long Deck Race Boat.

This boat is being restored to race in the Parker Enduro.

Power will come from a 427CI Chevrolet.

Here ‘s Eddie in 2001 repairing stress cracks in the deck seam.

The interior has been completely restored, complete with four new built-in fuel tanks for marathon racing.

The exterior has been faired and prepped for finishing.

Next we will wet sand to 2000 grit, buff & polish.

Then it’s off to the rigging shop.
