Hot Boat Charlie's

My grandfather began building racing boats in the late 1920's, and opened a marina in North Eastern Indiana in 1942, between Fort Wayne and the northeastern lake region of Indiana. My father took over the business in the late 50's. Three generations in the marine industry has rubbed off on me-I love it and it is in my blood. I spent so much time in the shop that the smell of gasoline is like home. Early on, I became interested in boat racing and I played with some nitrous motors, but I soon became intrigued by the older motors-the classics.
