Jaws 2 had a few wooden boats but I am having trouble finding them. The water skier was being pulled by what looks like Lyman outboard in this terrible picture...

And there was a kid that got eaten off of a wooden sailboat. I can't find a picture of that one.

None of them were 'big enough'. :D

One of those movies filmed a lot of stuff down towards Destin, Florida, and somehow they found out that a friend of mine had a wooden Lightning. They talked to him about buying it for one of those scenes where the shark crushed a bunch of boats and ate some kids, or something like that. My buddy asked them what they would do with the boat and they told him. Luckily for the boat he told them 'thank you, but no'.

There was a drive-by of Oscar Pease' catboat "Vanity", in scalloping rig, minus the mast. It was in the scene in the first movie when all the boats were milling around looking for the shark.
