I don't remember it ever being mentioned. The new Evel Knievel documentary on History CH, about 40min in they mention him buying Ferrari's plains/jets etc. and when they mention his boats and yachts they show a picture of him in a red sport called "Evel Eye1" Pretty cool.

I saw a picture some where of his yacht and there was a Sport tied up behind it.

I hold him responsible for at least 2 concussions I sustained as a kid....Sure I can jump 6 trash cans on a huffy renegade!

I met him in 1973 when he had Evil Eye II moored at Bahia Mar, my uncle lived on his boat at the marina back then. I was 6 years old at the time, Bahia Mar was crazy back then, I met Jerry Garcia, Evil Knievel, Sammy Davis Jr. I too have some battle scars from jumping over Flaming Pits of Death on my Mongoose...

You and me both, but my injuries were groin related, meaning my Nutsack seemed to always find its way to that sharp little bolt that held the handle bar stem on my Stingray.

Also he is responsible for me totaling my best friends PeaPicker because we assumed it had front shocks on the forks so we could build our jumps bigger.

Epic Failure with the front forks failing upon landing.

Did not help that we lived in the bottom of a valley and you could reach terminal velocity from just coasting down from the top .

Much respect to him for using the Harley's for his jump because trying to jump that lead sled PeaPicker after jumping with my stripped down Stingray brings back the saying "when Pigs Fly"

My buddies dad was super cool and was not wealthy so I thought he would freak when he saw what we did to my buddies nearly new PeaPicker .

Nope he was cool beans ,glad we had all of our fingers and toes and told us from here on out if we were planning to build jumps to save enough wood for landing ramps.

Ye we masterd those real well

The good old days there, what do you guess that little boat is in front of the magnum looks like a early brownie nova but looks to narrow.

I am thinking something English built


Yacht is maybe a old Feadship or Burger with a rear bulkhead added on the bridge deck

I guess that boat is Riva Saint Tropez!![ATTACH=CONFIG]549402[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]549403[/ATTACH]

Nice looking boat.

That thing is way. Cool. I was never a fan of the glass Rivas but I like that. It has been years since I have looked at the glass ones.
