We had this slipped next to us in Cobourg on the weekend.
Beautifully maintained 1927 57 foot ELCO Flattop.
I love classic boats and admire the work that some do to maintin them.

Beautiful vessel, but man what a labor of love that must be.
 
I've seen that on on the Rideau Canal I'm sure of it. Must have a pic somewhere at home. Nice shot Gary.
 
Saw this one pull into the fuel dock where I'm staying in Montauk NY on Monday. Didn't get a picture, but found this online -

Absolutely beautiful and in perfect condition.
 
I saw Justice a few times around Naushon Island and the Vineyard this season. She's quite a head-turner.

I wonder if he is headed to the Antique Boat show this weekend at the Buffalo Launch Club? We will be there, I'll look for her.
 
Gary- that is a gorgeous boat, as is "Justice" in the link above. If I won the mega lottery I could easily see myself collecting a few of these types of boats and having them around the USA- one in the PNW, one in Maine, and keep my Nordhavn down in Tahiti. :)
There is an amazing looking restored classic that is a bank repo right now that I was just drooling over online last night, a 1937 61' Mathis:

LOVE the looks of that boat and the level of detail and the stately interior.
 
Amazing brightwork on that Mathis. Love those beautiful timeless classics. Wouldn't own one... but sure wish a friend did :D .
 
I'd own one in a hot second if I could afford to pay someone else to keep it in prime form. It's almost criminal to buy one of these and let it slowly die.
