Hi all! First off let me preface my comments by filing a disclaimer.
1.) Not sure if this is the proper venue for my question, if not please let me know and I will remove my post. Also, I'm still as newbie so play nice!!
OK, here is my question. I recently purchased a nice original 1969 Chrysler Valiant 14' Runabout w/ what looks to be the original 70 hp Chrysler Outboard. Upon looking at the stack of old paperwork that came with the boat I saw that the original owner of this boat was a Mr. McGennis Adair of Mt. Vernon, Ohio. I saw over at the Chrysler Crew website that a Mr. Bob Adair was one of the original designers of the early Chrysler boats. I'm wondering if "my" Mr. Adair is any kin to Mr. Adair the designer?? I would love to be able to establish this connection and give my little boat some provenance. Anyone have any ideas or information. Thanks in advance...
