Overview
At the height of the Prowler’s popularity, the list of Forest E.Johnson’s friends, acquaintances, and clients included celebrities like Marilyn Monroe, Sam Snead, Don Aronow, Sam Griffith, Ernest Hemingway, and even the president of the United States, Richard Nixon, who once dialed up during a brief economic downturn to assure himself that his favorite boatbuilder was okay.This was the FIRST fiberglass 23' the legendary Forest E Johnson built, going from his favored fragrant cedar to smelly polyester,
"In 1968, he did two fiberglass Prowler models,” says Johnson Jr. “One was a 32-footer and the other a 23-foot runabout.”
She is an excellent 'RESTO-MOD' Classic, combining classic racing pedigree with all modern accoutrements.
