Thought you guys might like this...My family has lived in the v drive world in one form or another since the 60's, here's Dad's all original 1980 Fresno. He is only the second owner and it's in beautiful condition.

Cool boat. I'm assuming since it's a Fresno boat that it was built by Bob @ Fresno Marine?

very cool looking. I would live to see more pictures of the boat running or on the trailer. Very unique looking

I think I've seen just one other Fresno Cruiser that looked like that one years ago. Very cool!

Hello all, thanks for the compliments. The pictures were taken at Vineyard Lake in Michigan, here's a few more of it on the trailer. Mouzer - I'm not really sure where this one was built?

SS- Thank you - from what we've been told Fresno built very few of this model with V drives, most were jets.

Beautiful boat. I have only seen one other as well, and it might be the same one SS has seen.
Very unique piece

Those Fresno's are easily the coolest looking mini daycruiser, not sure why there are'nt more. I've seen two vdrives in person, this one in pics and three jets. One of the jets might get converted to a vdrive.

Thank you all for the compliments. As it turns out, my dad decided yesterday that he may be selling the Fresno because he's decided to do some downsizing in his life. The boat has hardly been on the water the last few years so it's time for someone else to enjoy the boat.

I'll posting it in the Boats For Sale forum soon with more pics.
