Prohibition in the United States lasted from 1920 to 1933. Regarding the choice of its name… Per Wikipedia: “The Untouchables “ were special agents of the US Bureau of Prohibition Led by Elliot Ness, who from 1930 to 1932 worked to end Al Capone‘s illegal activities by aggressively enforcing Prohibition laws against his organization. Legendary for being fearless and incorruptible they earned the nickname “The Untouchables “ after several agents refused  large bribes from members of the Chicago outfit.

The restoration of UNTOUCHABLE began in 2015 and was completed in July 2021. During the six year restoration. I was able to trace the sequence of ownership back to 1953, identifying six individual owners. Ownership prior to 1953 is unknown.

I am pleased to continue the legacy of untouchable in the waters of Michigan.
Hacker-Craft as “ The Steinway” of wooden boats is once again validated with “UNTOUCHABLE “.
