There WAS no twin-cam in 1964... :D
planb 19th September 2005, 21:54 My Pontiac LeMans from that year did! :D
KC_Sporty_Gal 19th September 2005, 22:51 didja get mine too? :)
stevo 20th September 2005, 01:33 There WAS no twin-cam in 1964... :D
certainly was Chucky......
The first Twin Cam HD came out in about 1928 ... the JD series
bplinson 20th September 2005, 06:50 Well the contest is over and I guess I did not choose a hard enough question because just about everyone who answered the question got it right.
The question was: In 1964 Harley-Davidson marketed a line of boats. What is the name of the Harley-Davidson boat line up in 1964? You do not need all 12 models, just the one make.
And of course you all know the answer: Tomahawk.
You can bet I WILL make the next contest harder!!!
I will pull the winnner raffel style sometime this week or weekend.
DustyJacket 20th September 2005, 10:57 I'll make it easy on you - just use my name......
Preacher 20th September 2005, 11:25 The question was actually a bit misleading, oh fearless leader.
In 1962 HD purchased a 60% share of the Tomahawk Boat Manufacturing Company. The company continued making boats for another year under the Tomahawk name (1963 for the 1964 model year) but as 1964 rolled around, production was stopped and the plant retooled to make Saddle bags and servicar bodies. :D
Mark_Bench 20th September 2005, 12:13 only reason I remember was our neighbors when I was growing up had a boar with a bar and shield on it...ad "Sea Chief" in big letters on it...
Guinnessharp 20th September 2005, 12:15 Whoo Hooo! Be sure and pick my name!
KC_Sporty_Gal 20th September 2005, 13:31 ooh, ooh, ooh, pick me, pick me, pick me. :banana

30 seconds on a google search gave me all that....so I passed.
DustyJacket 20th September 2005, 20:44 But in 1964, the Harley name was added to the boats.
From what I read - Harley was actively marketing them.
Paulie420 20th September 2005, 21:49 Yea the way it was worded where I found it was Harley Davidson marketed the tomahawk boats under ITS OWN NAME for one year only. So I think the answer really might be Harley Davidson Boats. :D
HA.
FreestateXL 20th September 2005, 23:33 I think I deserve to win, because I didn't use the internet to find the answer. My superior search skills found the answer in "The Harley-Davidson Century" book :rippedoff :Shower :smoke
Moved On 21st September 2005, 01:52 I found it in the May/June 2004 HogTales... even has a picture of one.
Gazza
stevo 21st September 2005, 01:55 It's one of those useless bits of info I remeber from years back....
Can't remember where I first saw it ... but the joke about Willie G getting the idea for the boat tail FX from there was somethin I remember thinkin the first time I found out about the BOAT company
FstPig 21st September 2005, 04:46 I can go you one better!
My father actually had one of the Tomahawk boats and knew the answer since he was a die-hard HD fanatic. :clap
Jeffytune 21st September 2005, 05:39 :laugh

As much as you like, as Often as you like, whenever you like.

Jeffytune 21st September 2005, 05:48 You are a very bad man jeffy :censor
:p
I say this only because in my HOG club, the lady's that ride, most ride Dyna's, the Sportster's are ridden by Guy's.
Maybe were a different bunch then the norm, but really, look around at the next rally and tell me you don't see more girls riding Dyna's then Sportsters.
I think this change has come along because it used to be Guy's would buy there old lady's(I hate that term) a bike, it would be the cheapest one they could get so they could have a better BT, that, and to get them to ride on the back of there bikes, and leave the sporty at home.
Lady's have caught on to this(Cause they is smart) and have ben going along and voicing there opinions when the buying time comes along.
That, or they get there own bike, and the Dyna is the one they like.....so it seems.
It's just an observation.
Vince 21st September 2005, 05:53 The first boat I ever owned was a 1961 Tomahawk with a 40hp Evinrude Lark on it. Used to call it the Batmobile because it had those 57 Chevy wings on the back. I sold it after I got sick of rowing back to the launch with one oar and the guy I sold it to restored it then resold it. It still sits in a guys back yard about 40 miles from me.
planb 21st September 2005, 07:02 Go knock on the guy's door, Vince, and get that puppy back...it's got to be a collectable now!
Vince 21st September 2005, 13:06 Go knock on the guy's door, Vince, and get that puppy back...it's got to be a collectable now!
I'll let that dude keep it. I'm trying to sell my current boat now. I've come to the conclusion I'd rather spend my free time in the summer on the bike. Boats are a PITA. I brought my boat home out of storage last spring. Changed the oil, cleaned it all out and fired her up, towed it over to the field and parked it. It hasn't moved since. Now if it doesn't sell I've got to flush it out and winterize it and put it back in storage. All for nothing!
DustyJacket 21st September 2005, 15:00 ....I'm trying to sell my current boat now. I've come to the conclusion I'd rather spend my free time in the summer on the bike. Boats are a PITA.

Yup.
My teenager doesn't want to go skiing or tubing with her parents anymore, so the boat sat for all but a week and a couple of days this year.
So, I am putting mine up for sale, too.
the cash from the sale will probably turn into a Low Rider for my wife next year.......

Sorry, but it is just too late here and I still have to put the bedroom set together :(
planb 22nd September 2005, 19:52 We know what you're trying to put together, Bert! ;)
