Picked up this vintage Perko brass light with blue and red glass lenses to replace the bow light. After cleaning and polishing, it is now installed on the boat. |

In 2012, I bought this vintage 1940s-50s Perko boat wheel to replace the plastic/rubber modern wheel I had been using. 2016, I finally got around to cleaning and polishing it and it will be installed before boat season this summer. |
In the end, it was this Brown Bros. vintage wheel that finally made it on the boat. The Perko wheel will be put aside and used on a future project. Also note the new Lowrance down scan radar. July, 2016. August, 2016. Time to remodel the cabin door, new paint and I added a vintage 1950s brass porthole. |
