Hey, did anyone say Elton Cary yet????
Thanks Brownie, an otherwise uneventful day...

I go with Sean and Mindi. Jean Claude Simon

Willie Meyers;)

In 1966, Harry Schoell designed and built a full-height 28' deep vee raceboat for Aronow. Don took that boat and cut it down vertically, to make the Magnum 27'. He took the 28' drawing, blew it up 1.15 times, and made the 32' Cary/Cigarette. He blew the 32' up 1.5 times and made the 49' Cary (really 48'3"). He stretched the 32' Cary/Cig. to 36', then stretched that to 40'. Performer stretched it to 44'. Aronow took some of the above boats and made the 28' Cigarette, all the Squadrons, and a few others.

Wynne/Walters did the 16', 19', 28' and 35' Donzis. Donzi gave the 35' to Aronow who made it a Magnum. He stretched it to 38', then to 40'. The 40' was expanded 1.33 times, and voila, the 53' Magnum. The 53' was stretched to 63', then to 70'. The 16' was stretched to 18', the 19' stretched to 20' .

Answer to the puzzle. NOBODY

Hey Brownie...Don had a team of designers..didn't he. Although he did get credit for it.

I have to bow down to his heirness on that one he is very correct.

Brownie very good but when you least expect it, expect it...... :D:D:D

brownie...you're a bad, bad man...:mad: :)

drove me crazy all day, i got no work done... :) :) :)

so my initial response that it was a trick question should be counted as the correct answer...right :) :)

To be fair...i learned alot today...did as much research on the net as i could and learned pretty much everything you've stated...

Brownie,its not nice to ask loaded questions ;)
