So, I am looking for more info on these boats. I know that they made 4 models: javelin, meteor, spitfire, desire. There is a great facebook page about them. Specifically who sold them in the USA specifically Utah and where to get parts. I've read posts about some car dealership in Utah that sold them. What do you know about them? Have you ever seen one? I have only seen 4 of their boats total and I own all 4. I'm hoping to find a USA warehouse with a bunch of new old stock parts.... Any ideas?

Best of luck, but its highly unlikely you'll find an NOS warehouse stockpile

Got pix of your 4?

I tried to upload pictures but they are to big to upload.... My profile pic is one of them. Ya, I realize a parts cache is unlikely. Legend has it that someone here in Utah sold a bunch of these boats in 2010 that were new and had been sitting in a warehouse for 30 years... My hope is to get more info and see who that was and if they have any more or any parts. I have looked for years for parts. Found 2 parts boats but still don't have what I need. Near as I can tell these are very rare in the USA. Not as rare in the UK but in the USA very hard to find. Super cool boats. I have 2 that run. They turn heads at the marina.

Doing some research and I found the dealership in Utah that sold the boats. Freeway Mazda. Unfortunately the owner died back in March of this year and the dealership is now closed.... I got his son's email. Hopefully I can get some info. I will post some pictures when I can resize them

Hydroswift, and if I recollect, Cordova boats were built in Utah. HS died in '05, Cordova's were 1970's boats, not sure of their history, google turned up a '77 for sale but that's about it. If you can locate anyone who knows their history, they may have info on these boats.

That's the best I got :)
