    Description

    This ski was handmade in Seattle by a man named Chris Holt, if my memory serves me correctly.  It was custom ordered by a family member in the late 1950's.  I believe Mr. Holt had some affiliation with the O'Brien ski company though I am not positive about that fact.  It took a long time to make and the waiting was difficult.  It saw a lot of action on Lake Washington and in the waters of Puget Sound.  It could be skied on again or would make a memorable wall decoration.  I'm told it could be refinished to its original glory.  The measurements are 68" by 12" by 1".  It weighs 8 pounds.  It will be shipped by UPS.
