Billy was away for several years,got out, and went back in for another year when he could not accurately state his assets.
He is out now for about 2-3 years.
Pretty wild character "from the day"

My very close friend Billy is now doing very well. He recently had a brush with death, suffering a stroke and having a quad bypass done, he then got pneaumonia, and almost died, but he is strong like a bull, and has endured much in his life. Everything is behind him from the past, he is free and living in a beautiful home on the water in Ft. Laud. I stay in contact with him to this day. At the time of his stroke he gave TNT a deposit on a new Skater, not sure if it is still a go or not, I`m sure he has to recover. I raced with Billy on a couple of occasions, once in San Fran really rough race, he was amazed how I ran the boat in big seas, he learned a lot in that race, unfortunatley we blew a diaphram in the Injection head and lost fuel pressure while way in the lead. Second time I ran was Cowes Torquay Cowes, we won and set a course record.
