    Real boats today at Lake Washington

    Here are pictures I took today at Lake Washington of two Vintage Unlimiteds (the restored Miss Bardahl and the replica Miss Thriftway) and several Unlimited light boats as well as Lighter than Lights which are the small boats powered by small block V-8's

    I live in Seattle and enjoy numerous types of photography which include Wildlife, Birds, Cars, Landscape, Macro and Sports

          Jim I live half a world away from these boats and have never seen one in real life. I have seen them racing on TV when I was much younger but that was as good as it got. Your pictures are so good and have inspired me to build a 1/10 scale one a little later on when I have more time. Nothing looks better on the water than these big Hydros at full speed.
          Thanks for sharing your pictures with us. You are a lucky man to be able to see these boats as part of your life.

                  Even luckier to live close to the museum and have participated in two restorations of these great boats.
