Mikes03gt, I have been trying to find pics of it in race form for a while now but haven't had any luck. Tell Andrew that Adam And Becky said hello though and to have a nice winter.

In cleaning out an old storage trailer we found a bunch of the original banana decals, not the first type we used, but the final version with just the word banana on a white background with yellow and black outlines.
If you look at photos of the side of the 38 foot race boat Top Banana, they are just like these. Also a box of old T-shirts that are similar to the ones shown in the photos of the Bacardi race that the crew was wearing in the pits. Black with all lower case white lettering.
Any interest?

I don't know how I missed this thread, but TB, I'd be honored to wear an original banna boat Co Shirt if you have an XL.
Thanks
