News story today that a bunch of JFK related items are being auctioned. One item is his boat. The article was accompanied by a "stock" photo of the boat. Look what the trailer is hooked to.

Is that an "H" or an "M"?

Re: JFK Memorabilia
Hard to say with that little showing and at that angle. I'm inclined to think it is an M.

Re: JFK Memorabilia
Not often I disagree, but looks like H to me. Steering shaft appears to have to much angle for M.Jim Becker wrote:Hard to say with that little showing and at that angle. I'm inclined to think it is an M.

That could be. I was trying to go by the height of the hood/tank and the amount of curve to the pedals. Those are the only parts that I could see that are fairly distinct between the H and M. Bad angle for seeing either.

Re: JFK Memorabilia
Considering it regularly got dipped in salt water it is probably hard to tell what it was even if it could be found now.

Re: JFK Memorabilia
I haven't seen anything that even talks about that tractor. It could have been his, but it seems more likely it belonged to some marina that did the grunt work of launching and boat maintenance.AL Farmall Boy wrote:Was the tractor JFK's too??

Re: JFK Memorabilia
On second thought, that looks like a fairly recent picture. It was probably taken at a boathouse owned/used by the person that was selling it at this month's auction. (Peter Eastman)
