Fantastic album by a talented guy. Still have the cassette, the liner notes & case lost to the ages. Please post any pix you have......

Sorry guys...That aint Bernie Little's superboat on the album cover.......
It's a Conquest......... We even provided the line drawings to the artist who designed the cover, Stephen's friend, Rocky Williams, who owned a Shadow cat and bought the Rolling THunder Conquest from Vinnie Rinaldi.

I am very pleased to report that a HORBA member has rescued the old KAAMA Cougar Cat and is in the process of restoring it and brining it back to life.
This boat was left out in the New England weather for far too long, but now has a bright future to look forward to.
He has promised photos of the resto as he progresses, check the HORBA site in a few weeks.... www.historicraceboats.com

Many Thanks for the good news Charlie! 
Another offshore milestone (it was the first cat to win a world title opening a new era in the offshore racing) recovered and saved.

Kurt, I saw your notice of a T2rex creation for sale. I may buy it to use as a box in case I have to ship a Cougar or a Flight Marine cat.
