The first boat was MELONS not bank restaurant. It was run by Edwin Scheer and JT at one point as Thoroughbred Motorcars on the OPT circuit.

They were around 366cu Chevy block Mclaren turbo engines, the year around 1989. Mike Danniballe worked there at the McLaren Livonia Michigan shop. Bob later powered her with Gentry big block 366cu turbo power to run in OPT open class

Butch you were ahead of your time with your 366cu turbo power. When your 37' Active Sport boat ran with the open class, time to discontinue sport class.
