i talked to a friend of mine today,[yes i do have a few left ] he is the original owner of a beautiful,mint,1968 al tyll skier. since my friend,dick is getting up in the years he hasn't used it much in a few years and would allow someone to adopt it,but only to a good home.after presenting my resume-photo album of her sister my barracuda undergoing restoration,i think,hope he's convinced i could provide her with the very best of care.
how much you thinkin bout askin dick? i don't know,6500 maybe. i'll have you a check this afternoon! well,let me think about ken.i'll let ya know wish me luck boys !!! |

Sounds like a deal. Is it red like the one listed here for sale? And what engine does it have? I feel like it's Christmas come early. My fingers are crossed.

it's red,red & white interior with white AL TYLL graphics on the hull.318 chrysler.
exact same boat as the barracuda ss,only a different name. i'm gonna bug him till he lets me have it ! then i'll have to find a comfortable home to store it for a little while cause i just don't have the space for another boat. |

Okay, you talked me into it. I just happen to have enough room in the shop for one more boat. Of course there is one condition on this. . . . . . Need I say more???? Seriously, if it's something you really want, I hope you get it! Don |

i can certainly understand how difficult this decision could be for the old boy.
afterall he's owned this boat 36 years. wife wanted a new pontoon 2 years ago,and that's the only boat they use. money is not an issue. sometimes it's just hard to let go! thanks guys ! |

We owned a 1966 Al Tyll Skier, bought used in 1969 for $1800.00. I recall it inside and out, as I was a teen, had it a few years, first engine I ever rebuilt. That 300 CI,
202hp engine was a buick block, aluminum as I recall. |

Too early in the morning to pick up on such details Tim. Kenny G is probably out enjoying his new Master Craft by now.
