Information -
As luck would have it at an ice boat regatta back in
1982, it was a situation where there was no wind. So my father
Mike McCormick & I went site seeing. We saw this boat for
sale at the Geneva Lake Boat Yard and he bought it on the spot!
It was exactly what he had been looking for. She was a 22-foot
beauty powered by its original Chrysler 318 with a V-drive. With
plenty of freeboard and its deep-V, the
Shepherd gives you a classic, smooth ride even in rough water.
The boat was kept on Lake Monona from 1982-87. Then moved to Green
Lake from 1987-92. The Green Lake property was sold in ’92
and the boat was then put into storage at the family lumber yard
for over 10 years. Then in the spring of 2002, my wife Cyndi &
I decided to blow off the dust from the ol’ Shepherd and
take it for a spin. Besides
needing a slight tune-up, it’s been running great since!
We became members of ACBS and have enjoyed participating in Antique
& Classic Boat Shows all over the country… including:
Muscatine, IA; Minocqua, WI; Eagle River, WI; Pewaukee, WI; Madison,
WI; and even Mount Dora, FL. The Shepherd Boat Company was located
in Niagra On The Lake, Canada.
