Rambler 16' 6"
RAMBLER 16' 6"
This boat was designed to protest the poor fuel mileage realized by most powerboats.
Driven at displacement speeds, "Rambler" will get well over 20 miles per U.S. gallon.
Her foredeck, windshield and washboards will keep her crew dry in sloppy going.
Featured in Wooden Boat #170.
