Seaworthy Wood Boat Flying Yankee Model 85 *SOLD*

Seaworthy Wood Boat Flying Yankee Model 85 for sale

Our wood boat is all original and includes the delicate rope for “Power Steering” as well as its original box missing some end flaps.  The toys varnish and red waterline look stunning.

The crank is an ingenious if not heavy handed way to speed this wooden boat along the pond.  It is a windup crank somewhat like a tornado siren in feel.  You put your body into the winding and can get it done fast.  Slide the lever on the side to stop it before a cruise.  Then turn the steering wheel and/or rudder to make a circle.  Pop the boat into the water and release the stop.   I speeds away, a tribute to the original intention of “Seaworthy” toy boats.

Condition is used and all original.  The sticker conditions are excellent, sprucing up this wooden beauty.
