Here is the program cover of the Benihana race the year after Bobby Saccenti won it in a monster of a boat.....the 44 foot MSV shown on the cover.
Bobby was the first winner of the race when it was sponsored by Benihana.

I grew up in NJ and loved going to the Pt. Pleasant races every summer! Rocky was always a true competitor.
I still have 2 mint condition programs from the early 80's from the PT. Pleasant races
