Here is another classic, Sam Altese's 24' Nova Come Again, he would later race this Magnum P-83 Come Again, and when I thought it was time I bought it from him, this time I had a real boat to race.

Mike / George?....the all-white OPA is Billy G's, also from Detroit area. He has owned it since day one. Your old 28 is back on post 54 / page 3. Still a regular fixture here on St. Clair.

Correct. He's in Lake Orion. Has a bar called Opa and another one I can't think of the name with a Pantera hanging from the ceiling. We had a OSO party there last year about this time. About time for another one.

Two early Outboard race boats that ran in Detroit in the 70's. BZ-II a 30' Maritime Hull with 3 Chrysler 150 racing engines, If race's were won on sound this outboard would win every time. The other boat was just known as FREDDY P-172 a 24' Super boat hull. Fred Hartman surprised many in P class with the speed of this boat.
