        Refurbishing Harpoon 5.2 # 485
          Gene Bragalone posted evidence of his impressive restoration project of a Harpoon 5.2 on this picasa page.
          This detailed slide show of 52 pictures documents the process and progress.
          The beautiful result of Gene's effort speaks for itself.

        The following pictures have been supplied by Wayne and Pat Birkenmeyer. Within the Year 2000, their enthusiasm for the Harpoon resulted in the first Harpoon Fleet (since the 80s). Their boat Irish Rose has now been joined at Ocala Lake in FL by five additional Harpoon 5.2s.
