| The 1962-65 Miss
Bardahl restoration is more than a restoration of a race boat.
Rather, it is the restoration of a racing team The Miss Bardahl
was restored by and is currently run by three of her original crew
members (Dixon & David Smith, Skip Schott).
Further, three generations of the Smith family have at one time crewed on this boat (Dixon & David's father Burns, Dixon & David, and Dixon's son Ryan). Finally, Jon Osterberg, although not a member of the original crew, is vital to the history of the boat, as he found the hull in the early 1980's. This ultimately resulted in the hull returning to Seattle and finally being restored by the original crew!
