    Been doing a working restoration on this 57' 1964 Roamer for about 10 months. Just finished priming and surfacing the mahogany cored fiberglass hardtop after extensive blister repair and fairing work. The craftsmanship in these roamers is amazing. She is still mechanically sound after sitting in sub tropical saltwater for 30+ years!

    (am) Teco?

    So you own "Amteco" - wow!
    Might this be the former "Teco" outfitted with MAN V-10 turbo diesels. So tell us, how fast can a 57' aluminum Roamer go? :cool:
    And another thing - how does that "steering wheel" and controls work?
    In any case, you are a lucky & wise Roamer for sure - do keep us apprised on all progress. :p
    Cheers!
