Yellow Banana Boats
The yellow bananas you saw are mine one was a stock boat that we raced with 200's and the other is a total custon boat with 2.4 EFI's
The yellow BANANA's were both mine if in fact the boat was a gel yellow not paint. Mike Snow
Hey Guys - Just got back from Key West Races this weekend - had a great time!
Dad and I were walking around in the pits and all of the sudden we came upon an all yellow 24 banana w/ twin 200s! Turns out the guy lives down here in St. Pete and was at the races as a patrol/safety boat. We talked with him a while and told him about OSO etc. so hopefully he'll join... He has boat #30 - a 1985 year model. Was great to see it there with all the race boats...
PS - Chris are you still coming down on the weekend of 12/4-5? I'll be around that weekend so you better not cancel again ya bum!!! lol!!!

Restoration B-73 Team Banana
To: Mike Snow
After reading your post it has come to my attention, when i was sanding the boat it smelt like gel coat and the outlines of Team Banana and B-73 were obvious.
In the next year or 2, we will be dedicating the time and effort that it takes to bring the Championship Winning Banana Boat back to its racing glory, including Team Banana back,
B-73 on the boat
If you could possibly email any details: stickers, sponsors that were on the Boat we would be happy to duplicate.
It is my honor to own your race boat and a piece of boat racing history....
ps.
Boat is no longer for sale, for we have owened it for 11 years.
Charlie, any help on this one would be appreciated.
Thank you,
