Old Sutphen Saved
I just aquired a 74 Sport Pacer 173 from a guy with a bunch of project boats that lost storage and wanted it to go to a good home. Im in CT. I received a call that there were a bunch of boats that were gonna be junked so I had to go look and found the Sport Pacer. It has the original 74 merc 150 tower of power that runs as well. He even towed it to my house for me. It needs resto but all there unmolested except for a funky 1970's paint job. I called Ritchie in Fla. gave him the Hin# he told me he had originally sold it to a guy in lowell Ma. who bought 2 of them. Mine was originally maroon and white. Im really looking forward to this project. I bet it will run great when the old tower of power gets dialed in. Anyone have one ? or had one ? Kind wondering what kind of speed I can expect from her. Thanks Paul

Been thinking of joining for a while but wifes laid off. Christmas is coming, boat needs work, cant justify paying right now or maybe santa will buy it for me. Better add that to my list good thing i didnt send it yet. As far as the Sutphen goes Think of it a a diamond in the very rough.
