The Ultimate Van Dam "Survivor" Collection.
Offered here is an exceptionally rare, museum-quality sales portfolio from Van Dam Custom Wood Boats of Boyne City, Michigan.
This is not a reprint or a calendar set; it is an original marketing archive sent directly from the builder approximately 25 years ago in response to a special inquiry.
Condition: Archival / New Old Stock (NOS)
These documents have been stored flat, inside their original folder, in a climate-controlled, dark environment since the day they were received.
Zero UV Exposure: Colors are vibrant and deep.
Pristine Paper: No yellowing (toning), no foxing, no staple holes, and no thumbprints.
Provenance: Single-family owned for over two decades. They are as crisp as the day they left the Van Dam shop.
What’s Included:
This complete portfolio represents the "Golden Era" of Van Dam’s custom builds, featuring 11 double-sided 8 1/2 x 11 specification sheets on heavy, high-gloss stock. Each sheet features a stunning profile of the vessel and technical specs on the reverse:
Featured Vessels Include:
Impshi II: The 750hp supercharged powerhouse.
Jacqueline: The "Water-borne Hot Rod" (75+ mph).
Stogie: 35' Gentleman’s Racer with twin 502s.
Cyclone: The luxury "Classic Limousine" with 6'2" headroom.
Ghost: A modern John Hacker-style masterpiece.
Additional Sheets: Hell’s Bells, Fast With Class, Lightning Strikes, Big Mouth Charle, and more.
Also Includes:
Original Van Dam Presentation Folder: High-quality cardstock with the official logo.
Original Builder’s Business Card: Still attached as it was when first mailed.
Collector’s Note
Van Dam builds are world-renowned, one-of-a-kind legends that often sell for mid-six to seven figures. For the owner of one of these specific hulls, or a serious maritime historian, this portfolio is an essential piece of provenance that is nearly impossible to find in this "time capsule" condition.
Shipping: This set will be shipped flat and over-protected in a reinforced, non-bendable package to ensure it arrives in its current pristine state.
