Am I missing something? I don't see the video... Can someone post a direct link to the video?

Thanks Chad

I enjoyed the 30 on 30 piece. Would have liked a longer more detailed story. I really like biography channel "Los Muchachos" episode, documenting Willy and Sal. Seeing some of the clips in these shows, really shows the difference in the popularity of offshore racing between then and now.

It was the day before the Hennessy Gran Prix. I pulled into Kings Grant Inn with my 28 Cig. That was race headquarters.
Cruising in to the docks Don was standing on the deck of a 46 or 58' Bertram Sportfish with his chick Missy.
I saw him and pulled next to the bow of the Bertam and looked up, WAY UP at him and said ,hey Don want to go for a ride?
He leaped down from the bow of the boat onto my deck.( It was a long drop) Landed on his feet &,climbed over the windshield
Took the wheel and up the Manasquan river wide open we ran chasing his friend Doc Magoon in Docs 39 Cig raceboat
He said don't worry if it blows I'll buy you a new engine
The man had no fear of anything!
