Re: OLD RACE BOATS - Where are they now?

i had this post under a different topic but thought it really fit here maybe someone can help!----- :drink: i bought an 1988 27 elininator daytona in new york and i'm thinking of restoring it to its origional glory. ken, the guy i bought it from tells me that the hull was team eliminators race boat at one time. i can verify this by slight varyations in the gell coat where the team eliminator graphics were. (also the #7) . the hull was built in the now defunked wisconsion plant. ken, also tells me that under the flooring i will find stringer mounts for a third moter. this boat has front bolsters that are in the center of the boat, side by side. i am looking for any info i can get my hands on about this boat. the gell is white w/7 color reds . the radar arch still says team eliminator anyone having archives or knowing where to find them would be greatly apprecated! p! :D i'll post a pic of its preasent condition soon

I remember this boat at the factory. I think it was built for a European or mid east customer and was getting ready for shipping. The coat of arms of the owner was painted on behind the number.

Don made some joke about it belonging to "another one of the kings". He sold many boats at that time to various kings around the world.

Willy Myers supervised the building of a 35 that was sold to the Shah of Iran. Willy went with the boat when it was deliverd to Iran and the Shah gave him a beautiful gold Rolex watch engraved on the back with the Shah's name. This all happened before the Ayatollah took over.

Excellent agent! Congrats on the Championship. Also, I think that particular boat is still being raced overseas. :D
