Elco 19 Picnic

Elco 19 Picnic - Heritage Classic

This 19\' Picnic is a great, electric, pocket cruiser capable of handling inshore tide currents and is a great, behind the house, cocktail cruiser. Pack a few of your friends in this boat with some wine & cheese and head out in the bay to check out the waterfowl and tranquility of the water. At the end of the day, simply plug it in, recharge and it\'s ready for the next adventure.

Perhaps known best for its introduction of the electric launch at the 1893 Chicago World\'s Fair, Elco produced a fine and varied array of boats in its heyday from the 1890s to 1949. According to the Elco website, \"Elco designed and built – or had built – more than 6,000 pleasure boats ranging in size from an 18 foot gig or yacht tender to cruising power boats up to 127 feet in length. It also built craft for the government of the United States and other countries, including lifeboats for the U.S. Coast Guard, launches and tenders for various navies, anti-submarine motor launches in World War I, and PT boats in World War II – including PT 109 – captained by Lt. John F. Kennedy.\" Today, Elco produces fine electric launches that echo the lines of the original boats, in addition to custom boats that reflect the old designs.
