Author	Topic:   Year of 13 Sport in Cetacea
BobL	posted 04-10-2011 11:03 PM ET (US)         Could the beautifully restored 13 Sport on page 24 of Cetacea really be a 1978 if it lacks the front step pads and has the small anchor locker? I believe the changes came in 1977. http://continuouswave.com/whaler/cetacea/cetaceaPage24.html
