That is very typical for that period . It's actually a berkley pump and I can only assume that that's how it was done back in the day. That is a very cool boat and from the pictures it looks like it's in very good condition. I wouldnt plan on doin 100 mph in it though .It would make a bad ass cruiser . I want it.

If looks could kill, or if old school could kill, that boat rocks! Actually I think old school can kill in that thing somewhere around 70 or 80 mph!  :o

I did a little research and it turns out the pump is a 12JHB berkely.
( by research i mean i asked the seller of the boat )
