The History of the Battlewagon

School is officially back in session; and in that spirit, the good writers at Yachting magazine have prepared a little boating history lesson. While entire volumes on the history of the sportfishing boat could be written, Yachting magazine chose to stick with three of the most historied manufacturers in the business. Rybovich, Whiticar, and Merritt were there at the beginning and are still around making some most sought after battlewagons today.
I would have paid way more attention in school if more history lessons were about boats. Click this link for the brief history lesson and don’t forget to check out the photo gallery to go along with it.

I love the caption under picture 11 of 29 in the photo gallery where Curt Whiticar says, "It wasn’t so complicated. … The fish were everywhere!" Those were the good old days!
