Just thought I'd say hello to any Whip owners. I picked up a 1975 Whip on Saturday that is in pristine condition. looking forward to putting "Ms WetVette " through it's paces. I named my Whip ( WetVette) after the first 1953 Corvette Stingray that Robert Morrison of MFG company made for the Chevy corp. I'm thinking this Whip boat is going to be as responsive & fast on water as the Corvette is in comparison to land. Anyhow it's nice to have one of the 123 Whip boats on this planet. sail # US130

Nice name! I enjoyed reading what you wrote.

Enjoy your boat. I have yet to find someone who owned one of these who was not pleased.

I think I remember seeing that boat listed for sale. They are fast and fun...not many boats on Calhoun can keep pace other than the cats. Have not used mine much this summer. I have a Sirius 22 that we took to the North Channel in Lake Huron this summer for a little cruise and that burned up much of the summer.
