One thing that I found interesting is that they made a boat called a
Spirit.. It looks like a Ski Boat / Runabout on a bass boat's hull. I
am guessing it was to compete with the smaller Checkmates.

Wow I didn't realize Ned was in his 60's when he was involved with
Winner.


Many bass boat manufacturers did the same thing. There's a guy around
the corner from me with a fairly recent skeeter runabout. Then again,
Hydrostream had a bass boat for one year, and so did Mastercraft (that's
right, it was the Bass Nautique).

Winner had a full line of Sal****er boats in the late 80s as well. Great
big Cuddy Cabins and Center Consoles.
