This is my 1964 Gig the 1st photo is from approximately 1980 in Ocean City , NJ We currently own a first year Mako 17 restored with the serial number of 398.

I really liked it but parts for the engine became a problem. I sold the boat in 1998 it was last in Ocean City NJ. The history of the boat is interesting. The folklore is that it was originally a Florida Patrol boat. Then sold to the head of the NJ prison system at the time . That sale generated an interesting registration number NJ 2 Z when all other boats had a 4 digit numerical center. I understood it was due to the original NJ owner and his status in the State Gov't.
It was a neat old boat and I enjoyed it greatly. I live in the New York Finger Lakes today and wish I had kept it. It had the seacocks and the fittings for the optional marine head but the unit itself was not installed.
I would like to join the forum as it would be fun. I have great memories to share about this boat.
