DescriptionPurchased from "Pal" Al Nelsen, this is a chambered balsa, hollow construction, with a redwood diamond shaped nose block added by Nelsen. Tail section was later modified with slight vee-bottom and a modern mahogany fin. Decals on both the deck and bottom were most likely added when Joe Quigg had his shop in Newport Beach in the 1960s.
