    Welcome. I don't recall that boat.

    But I recall the yacht "Crystal Lady" that was built by Warren.

Going off a bad memory but i think they owned a business called Arrow Pattern in Warren Michigan. Does anyone recall that boat?? Thanks..
    I can't find anything out about it. Maybe one of the older guys??

    I tried. I went as far as trying to trace existing pattern companies back to Arrow. No luck.

    Yeah, i tried a Google search and no luck at all. Very strange... Not a big deal, just thought maybe someone here would remember. I pretty sure that team ran a deep V in the late 1970s, maybe a Cig or Scarab ? But i remember going by their shop in the late 1980s and seeing a Cat in their warehouse across from Macomb Community College. Fun times anyway. Thanks.... Jim

    Well, now that we have the spelling known, we can dig some stuff up.

    It appears as if there were 2 Kristyl Lady's. One a Magnum, the other not sure yet but digging.

    You can swap registration numbers from boat to boat in Michigan. Just like license plates.

    You think it's the same boat with extensive modifications to the hatches, handrails, and bow handrail?

    Was it unusual to see Volvo Penta drives on a race boat back then?? I thought MerCruiser had the market cornered.

    I would say not unusual for production like classes. Mercruisers with trannies, TRS and speedies were heavier and more expensive. The number one drives like the present alpha did not have counter rotation. Volvo had the only counter rotating drive that did not need a trannie. Volvo's cone clutch patent expired in 86 or 7 . That is when Mercruiser released the Bravo drive.
