1950'S GERMAN LAUNCH/PICNIC BOAT. THE ONLY ONE KNOWN IN EXISTANCE. BUILT BY ALFRED KNIEF IN HAMBURG GERMANY. REAL LEATHER INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY
Meine Damen und Herren here is your chance to be the proud owner of a one of a kind boat here in the US of A. It’s a German import from the day. And now is in Tahoe looking for a new home. This has been a great two weeks on eBay for sure. lots of folks cleaning out there boat houses. This one will not be relisted… So macht schnell.. Click here.
A SHOT FROM THE FACTORY IN GERMANY(WHICH NOW MAKES SAILBOATS). THE COMPANY IS NOW RUN BY THE SON OF ALFRED KNIEF. THE FAMILY WAS HAPPY THAT THAT THE BOAT WAS STILL AROUND.
Nien Danka.
That thing just screams German styling, or some would say lack there of. Compare it’s lines to a Riva and you kinda have to feel sorry for it!
So do you keep the 3 banger in there or replace it with modern? Or at least a Hercules? Can you even get parts for it? Will you have an urge to invade the adjacent slips?
With a fiberglassed bottom, now complete with cracks, I would be more concerned about the U-boats propensity to dive below periscope depth rather than uncontrollable urges to invade the neighbors!
Make sure you invite a friend with a 5 gal bucket.
They said it was the last time it would be listed LAST TIME. It brought a bid of $10,000 the last last time.
Why stop there. I say a 911 air cooled motor… Oh yeah
They made a VW bug inboard marine engine. Wouldn’t take much to make it work on a 911.
How do you keep an air cooled motor cool in an inboard installation? I would think you would need to convert to water cooling.
