Post List of "Known Survivors"

Attached please find latest copy of "Known Survivors".
Encompasses all Roamers we have found to exist today.
Sorry about the .txt format - it was the only one that would load here.
OWNERS/ROAMER SPOTTERS:
CHECK over the list and see if you see your boat and/or any others that you know about. There's a 50 cent reward for all new "additions" - $1.00 if it includes a hull#
Cheers!

Roamer

I saw a Roamer in Solomons, Md. It had a hard shell on the aft deck, almost didn't recognize it as a Roamer. Know anything about it?

There's a member in our yacht club with a handsome 57' Roamer 1966 model. She is the former "Lazy Bones" currently named Bella Nave'. Is she in your list?

Ouuhh!
Quite the fine Roamer, no?
Didnt realize this one had changed handz - but he's one lucky guy indeed.
Got her down for a silver anniversary award, but unfortunately no hull # (darn).
Shame really - that one is a certain "millenium" cruiser (year 3000 AD ).
Wish I'd make it so long sailing on Earth.
Meanwhile, hope all is well at Kent Narrows.
Cheers!

Well, we certainly appreciate the hull #, and can tell you that she's a "steelie". Some more technical data can be found here:
http://www.geocities.com/alloyed2sea...iviera_57.html
But we have nothing in the records about this particular boat (name?) - sorry to say.
Wonder if you have you actually seen her & where that might have been.
Jim Wyck at www.chris.parts probably helped build her and is always very helpful with good advice.
Hope all turns out well.
Cheers!
Eric

Thumbs up Interiors

Craig -
Formica was the "wave of the future" which CC began to use in the late 60s. No surprise your Roamer (name?) has it. The good (gudder?) news is that - should you wish for a warmer, more "real" wood interior, now you can apply your own wave-of-the-future: Pressure Sensitive Adhesive - (PSA) backed veneer: all, in any one of a number of wood finishes.
See more here:

http://www.tapeease.com/Home.htm
https://www.ovisonline.com/store/wood_veneers.asp
Many other suppliers on the web as well...
Methods:

This stuff is Awesome!
Have even used it successfully in areas that get a bit of weather.
Finally, hope for the "woodless".
Cheers!

Correction to List of Known Survivors

Eric I have a correction to give you on the list of Know Survivors. An email that I received from the owner of the 1957 31' "Rhiannon" , ROX-31-157, states that it is a 1961 model. And my boat, 35' 1960 Riviera ROX-35-418 "The Shangri-La" is also a 1961 model built and delivered on Dec 27, 1960.
