Hi, For all Roamer fans.. own one, thinking of investing in one? I do not know it all, but know a bit... having restored my Dad's 38' 1969 Aluminum Rivie, (1 of 7 made) that's right, twice.. took it apart this time, gutted the whole interior, floorboards, sand blasted... the whole 9 yards. If you need some parts, or want to know where to find some parts or have some ideas as you ponder your next or current project, please do buzz Homer1958. I was 12 when he bought it new in Niagara Falls, (without telling my mother!... (he passed in November 08) 50 years now, worked on it my whole life.... it's not easy but is fun an very rewarding... they are such strong, fast, sleek looking vessels. We all truly think we will get our Roamers done one day... It never ends ... "Hope Springs Eternal." We are not as active as the Commander Club as there are less of us, but keeping the Roamer alive not only helps increase their value, but also meets new friends. I can tell you where to get great chrome work done too. Power it right, and she will move faster than most new boats of equal size.. certainly looks cooler than most. Homer
