HISTORY
Years Raced Built for John Clennix of Nutter Fort, WV. The boat was only in the water once or twice and was never raced. It never had a name or number. The owner had a stroke and had the boat hidden in a barn behind bales of hay. It was discovered in the mid 1990's by Mike Steffick. Ultimately he sold the boat to the Joseph's. It was restored by Larry Lauterbach and is virtually original. It was named Henry's Tenth in 2002 by Henry & Larry Lauterbach after it was determined that it was the 10th boat that Henry built.
