I remember riding in one of those boats once. I was maybe 2 years old. It was night and very dark. I remember sitting in my dad's lap and being allowed to drive the boat. We started heading towards the inside wall and I didn't know how to turn the boat. My dad laughed and didn't take over the controls until my mom started to panic. It's one of my fondest memories.
I found the below advertisement here at Downwind Productions. Try check it out. Each dot on their map will take you to a story from back in the day . . . veeery, veeeery cool.

I remember riding those! I remember sitting on the front and hanging my legs trying to touch the water. Classic. Good old days!

I remember seeing those boats right next to the McCully bridge. Cool picture!
WOW..cool old pic..you can see the ENTIRE Diamond head! $.75-$3.00 in the 60's? That seems pretty expensive..
Picturing you enjoying the water even back then makes me smile Dean.
Funny Winnie!
Seems like so long ago yeah Erick.
Shun Wah, it is a cool picture. I don't even know how much the photo was selling for. I didn't even ask. $3.00 was a lot back then.
