Tether Boat w/ McCoy 60 & Magneto model airplane engine car hydroplane

Description

three Point Prop Riding Hydro with a Dick McCoy magneto. This hull design came from a Mr. Weaver of San Pedro, California. It appears to be a Post WWII design.
The magneto is a design by Dick McCoy. In 1947/48 Dick fabricated enough parts to make 6 magnetos. He completed one and tried to get Duro-Matic to buy his design. They chose not to because of the then new glo plug was killing ignition engine sales and the remaining tether car market was to small to to warrant investing in tooling to produce a magneto. In the mid 1980's Dick gave me the parts for the 5 magnetos he never completed. I had to fabricate some missing parts B/4  they could be completed.   These magnetos are a very rare part of McCoy/Duro-Matic history.
