There were three (3) lemonade yellow Thompson (Peshtigo) Sea Lancers on display on Saturday 14 July in a classic boat show. The show was the Chain of Lakes Classic Boat Show held at Alexandria, MN. What a site to see the three yella boats! They were:

Rod & Debbie Syverson in a 1962 Sea Lancer
Bill Anderson in a 1961 Sea Lancer that he just obtained
Andreas J. Rhude in a 1957 Sea Lancer

You may be able to see some pics of the boats at: www.mnlakesmaritime.org and/or mciver.photoreflect.com

Looks like quite the show. I could not help notice the good looking Thompson with the seat cushions that go up over the seat backs. Do you know who the proud owner of that Thompson? I would love to see some close ups of those seat cushions.

Thanks

Trey,

We were not at that event, but our 63 Super Lancer has cushions that wrap on top of the seat backs. If you email me at thomp1@mchsi.com I will forward some pics of the seats.

Not sure which one you were looking at. Mine is the '57 Sea Lancer with twin Johnson outboards. Phil Anderson has the one with the vintage Mercury outboard. Rodney Syverson has the boat with the new Evinrude Etec outboard.

Looking at the picture it is Rodney's boat, which was looking great. I will drop an e-mail to John and it sounds like he can send me some pictures.

Thanks.
