These photos sure show a nice little pussy cat of a sandbagger.
I saw my first sandbagger in the mid 1950s sitting in the back of the yard at Rex Marine in South Norwalk,CT. You could see through between the planks and the white paint was crusted and alligatored. I was thrilled instantly and have been for all my life, but my father had just finished helping me get a boat that looked like a LI shorebird and he was not bitting( I was about 15). Up on the bow of this bagger was the name, "TIGER" still standing out clearly. I can still taste it!! :eek: tongue.gif :confused: QMBob
