This Project was done for the Bon Appetit Restaurant in Dunedin FL, while I was working at Clearwater Bay Marine Ways in the early 80’s. Was re-powered with a Westerbeke diesel, and CG approved for passengers to be used for sunset cruises. The unconfirmed rumor was that the boat was from the Normandie, it does look like the correct style, it had been store in a barn in Bushnell Fl for a number of years, and brought to Clearwater by Don Heiser the General Manager of the boat yard.
