1940 Models 150-155 GarWood
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2012 3:08 pm
Greetings all,
I've received my production varification certificate on our GarWood and it seems to have raised more questions than answers! We have a 1940 model 151 does anyone know what the difference in the 150-151-152-153-154 & 155? Tony's book says that there were 20 units made for 1940. I feel fairly certain our hull was built in 1939 as it was shipped to buyer Jan. 29, 1940. Does anyone know of another out there? I'm guessing if there were only 20 of this series for 1940 there most likely are only a couple of us left.
Second question. The certificate say there were 119 boats "in series" and we are 69 of 119. But the book says production in 1939 was 160 units and 165 in 1940 so I'm just not sure what a "series" is comprised of.
Thanks in advance,
Jerri
