I do remember it being a completive “A” boat.

Ran as A-33 “Kamakizi” 90,91 & 92
I think it was A-32 Hauling Glass by 93

I do not recall them running against Fever, who was in “B” class. But the time we all got moved to “B” class (1995 season), Joe S. was driving for Peter Meyer in Instigator (the activator, then the fountain).

"Lil Rhino" was bought by Gilly and I ran it for him under the name "Holiday Isle's Rum Runner" until "Footy" from Y-100 took the boat for a season or two.,

Hulls #1 & 2 were the S-254 Rhino and the M-793 Wolverine, hull number 3 was the P-111 LaSalle. All 3 boats were to race in each APBA prodution class back in 1976. The LaSalle pictured here, is as it raced, and today. It is still here on Lake St Clair. Ironhead when can I shot some pictures of your restoration of the P-14 Anaconda Magnum that raced the LaSalle ??? I need pic's, my attic is still to cold .

There use to be a 29 Mirage out of Jackson NJ called "Gazpacho". It raced in the late 70's early 80's. I've got pics of it but can't post them No scanner) Anyone remember this boat?
Eventually the boat was sold and became "Outlaw" and was stolen out of East Dover Marina.

Someone knows how deep is the V on the 29 Mirage?
