Jim - I knew his last name began with an R, and you are correct, he was a great guy. Where are all those guys now. Johnny Bakos showed up in S&F awhile ago for only one post. Hope Phil is doing well. I haven't been to Sarasota for a long time. I'm sure you noticed Phil's picture in the first post of this thread. Speaking of having lunch and getting brain in gear. The thing that got me moving again was having lunch with Charlie McCarthy and Bill Warner last week. Talk about memory...read Charlie's article in Extreme Boating. You can access it at HORBA.

And then...2 Old Fart Car racers....Charlie McCarthy and Bill Warner. I don't want to get away from boat stories, but these two guys have some GREAT stories about the days they raced cars together. Bill is a highly reknowned racer, writer, car restorer, photographer (Road & Track), AND the Founder (and still Boss) of the Amelia Island "Concurs de Elegance".

Here is some real old school and rare stuff.
It is the actual entry form for Brownie and Donzi Baby for the 1965 Gateway Marathon.
Notice the entry fee of $5.00 per boat and an extra $15.00 per person.

409 Daytonas ... cool!
Most people don't know that Daytona offered turbocharged marine conversions with water cooled exhaust turbine housings, intercoolers and boost pressure regulation waaaaay before anyone like Gale Banks.
Those 409 Chevys could have been 400 or 425 hp @4,000 which was really big horsepower in those days
