I found these about 10 miles from my house. Can anybody identify them? I took the picture while driving by so it isnt great. I plan on sometime stopping buy to see if they would part with them click |

Those things are in sad shape! Looks like they might be Jigers. |

Larry, I would be willing to bet that they are fiberglass bodied JIGGERS. Not much reward in rebuilding them. Small motors and no frames. Your attex pictured in your profile is a much happier story. I once owned a Jigger powered by twin 2 strokes that shared a common factory exhaust manifold and muffler. When you powered up one engine only to turn the idling engine stalled. Traded it for an Amphicat. |

Did you ever find out anything about these? What state do you live in? |

My brother has the blue gip sea thing that previous owner posted somewhere on site saying he is restoring it. Well he never did and my brother ended up with it and it is still in pieces. It is suppose to be a copy of jiger and tipped it upside down and looked at it and it looks alot like those i took picture of. So I would say they are jigers. I drove by there the other day but with weeds and stuff hard to see. I live in michigan and those pictures where off of M-60 Near Leonidas. If anybody interested in them and know the area email me and will get more descriptive. I have to may toys as it is anyways. |

Hey Larry, do you still see those Jigers around? Do you know who owns them? If they are left to rot that 's sad. John Gower is my grandfather and he invented the Jiger. If only I didn't live 1000 miles away. If you ever find more info let me know. Wayne. www.jiger.ca |
