Miss Winnipesaukee

Here is what Jack Irwin told me:

We had a total of 12 Miss Winnis. I have one restored. There are two more on Winnipesaukee. One is a rebuilt and the other is a patched up boat that I gave to a friend and I was surprised he was able to get it to float. The one that was rebuilt is the one that blew up in Weirs Bay about 1945. Twenty years ago a guy brought it up. It had burned to the waterline before it sank. A guy with a lot of money had it rebuilt. It must have cost $150K. The motor was taken out by another guy. It was totally rusted out. It was an A120 250HP Chris-Craft. A new motor was put in the rebuilt.
