Who We Are?
Both Dicky and I are car guys and we both love the Batmobile and who doesn’t, but the Batboat is the most famous boat on the planet and is simply cool, even if boats are not your thing. Thank goodness that Dicky is a boat person and his experience for restoring boats is integral to this restoration. I am not sure that this project could be completed without his help.
Our Mission
Our mission is actually pretty simple. We, meaning Natalie, Dicky, last name withheld per Dicky’s request, and myself are going to restore this boat back to day one condition when it emerged from Glastron Development in Austin Texas on its way to Hollywood and movie history. We both understand that this is not a race and there is no timeline for this restoration other than we both wish to display this piece of history for everyone to be able to enjoy it again
Natalie is documenting this journey and will be periodically posting videos on YouTube of our progress.
