    Phil Carter built a outboard from a GN hull when he worked there in the 70s. He owned a ski/marathon boat called Never Satisfied. Fitz drove it in the enduro once or twice.

    Just before Rudy died a guy came in that had a full height 21 cruiser with a Merc 300 on it, with wrap around cocktail seating in the rear. Thing was cooool.

    I guess he would build whatever you wanted if you asked.
    If you're asking what happened to THAT hull, a guy was talking with ,me a couple years ago in Parker and described a 20ft he had, and it fit the that hull to a T. However, I since learned from a member on PB, that Rudy wasn't the first triple engine GN hull to win the Worlds at Havasu, 3 other guys from the south bay area had done it the year before in 1966 using a Rayson 20ft(19) with e outboards. I wasn't buying it, but he gave me the names and I found it in a Sport illustrated article on line.
    I see if I can find it again. Kind of blue me away when I learned that.
