Not Caliente... they ended up on the sandbar.

Not Mich Light/ Kaama. Betty Broke her ankle. I rode with her in the back of the ambulance which broke down on the way to Mariners hosp. in Tavernier.

Lil Rhino won Sport class. with Marv Marter on the thottles and Sandra driving.

Pepe... I think i'm a year off... Im must be talking about 80? The race ran for 2 years and then nothing until 1984 when Joe Roth bought HI. I chaired the race with Vic Speilberg. Bad Company won overall that year and George Hertel, Joe Roth III and I came in 2nd after swimming "Fever" over the finish line.

But nothing beats Miami to New York in a 24' which you survived hands down... and I survived an entire season with Marshall in one of your 24's... kinda the same thing...right??

the first time I saw a Cougar cat was in Moscow Idaho. I took a look at it as wonder what in the heck it was because it kind of looked like a Shark with solid decks yet much different. I located the owner and thats how I found out what the brand name was, but it was more like 16 or 18 feet long so may be a different boat that what you are asking about.

i ran the year they closed up after the race , probably 80. Rough as hell the whole race. If i'm not mistaken , i believe hi files bankrupcy after the race and all the prize money checks bounced. Could be wrong, long time ago
