Saws Donated by Chip Hanauer

[Don Mock]

The Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum would like to sincerely thank Chip Hanauer for the high quality band saw and table saw he recently donated to the museum. The saws are a huge boost to the museum’s shop and will go a long way in helping maintain boats, trailers, display projects and restorations. Chip offered the saws in memory of his father Stan, who was a fine craftsman and built many of Chip’s first outboard hydros. Stan was also one of the first board members of the original Unlimited Hydroplane Hall of Fame and Museum in the 1980’s helping lay the ground-work for today’s Museum.

 

The saws were put to use right away by members of the Blue Blaster restoration team. Gail Richardson checks out the fence on the new Rockwell table saw.
