    Here is a picture of the Hydrodyne Factory in the Old School House in Spencerville, IN, as it was in 1984 when I bought my boat new.

    It looked like an old school house that was converted into a boat factory. I have a video of a tour of the inside that I took back in the day.

    Yes I surely could. If you send a copy of the video I will convert it to DVD for you and send it back (DVDs last forever) Then I can also put it on the site.

    In the 2nd story, 3 or 4 of the class rooms next to each other had the walls knocked down between them to make on larger room with the molds and hull/ deck assembly. Some of the rooms were left in tact for the actuall fiberglass cloth cutting room and even for a lunch room.
    Main floor was similar to upper floor. Larger room (knocked down walls) was used for wood shop and boat assembly/finishing. In tact rooms were used a stock rooms and storage.
    Basement had welding shop and real pleasant rest room!
