[QUOTE=h2oboater;2024083]The year 1971,, there were not any [ official ] race's on lake St Clair,, More Magnum's, Donzi's were appearing on the lake. This was one of them,, a Donzi I believe belonging to Wally Harper before he raced his famous Lil Smidgen Magnum. Twin 302 vee drive Ford's in a 21' Donzi, must have been some ride!![/QUOT

Mark, correction from Kev....the Donzi is actually Jack Mathes'....co-pilot (holding a beer!) is his neighbor John. Power is Holman & Moody.

Couple pix of the reincarnated Miss Bee-Haven from the LEOPA run....Mark P did a beautiful job restoring her and the power. My opinion, no prettier sound in Offshore than hot small-blocks & dry pipes like the 28 has.

A Kevlar 24 Sport? Wow, that's a pretty boss little boat. And the Miss Bee Haven is sharp as well. Any idea what happened to the black 28 Pantera with the tripple OBs?
