Catweazle was ex-circuit boat Miss Cougar which Earl of Normanton rolled in 1970 Paris 6hr and did his back in. See next post. Just recalled it was a revamp of a previous build that was all. The Old boy (GRS) picked up Syn-cat & converted it to a Single for the 82 season (Mrs Mac) that went really well & drove like a charm, poor motor really dampened the results & a struggle on the finances at the time didn't help. Boat got sold on to SWP. |
Whasent there a cougar called "POWERPLAY" ?
I think late 80's got damaged in KW (maybe 90's). |
That was a Sport Class wooden cat built in the Phillipines. They blew it over (barrel roll) while leading out to Sands Key Light. 1982 or 3. Belonged to the guy who owned Powerplay boat Co.

That was 1984-85 it was Danny's 33 wood cat, they repaired it with some aluminum I think and raced it. It is now a pleasure boat in long island NY. Doc Legori owned it last I knew.

Who was in the boat with Danny? I can picture him as clear as day, but I can' recall his name.
