And it was definitely black, I still have color photo's
from my inquire on the boat when Rusty was selling
her way back when............He had sent me a v.h.s.
tape of that boat running, I wish I had made a copy!
It was an unbelievable run in BIG sea's, love that cobra.
A divorce kept me out of that purchase, timing is everything!

Hey Ygrowup,

I'll take the bonus question...Ralph Linero went on the navigate for Sal Magluta and Willie Falcon at Seahawk Race Team. Man 'O War, Seahawk, and Arneson were all serviced at KS&W Offshore Engineering in St Augustine, FL. I may have some pictures of KS & W in my basement from the early '80's. Ralph also was part of the Miami to New York team that Pepe Nunez broke in his Pantera about 31 years ago. That's Ralph on the bottom, left.

Look at the history there. Banana, Signature, Coyote, Cobra, Banana. Some of the best rough water hardware of that time.

Gold Rush was owner by Rusty Miller of Erie then sold to Bob Timme here in Eastlake, Ohio. Bob then sold it to Paul Palmentara who raced it in the Great Lakes Series for a few seasons as Blade Runner. The boat is still sitting behind his body shop ready for the next guy to take her on.
