Marco...this 36 footer is the one that Don and Jim Wynne ran in Florida, many years after the boat co was started....as you can see by the photo, the boat was actually a pleasure version( no bolsters) ..... and they just had civilian type lefe vests on for the race.
BTW, this is the only race ever won by Don in a"Cigarette" made boat.

h2oboater you have a very interesting archive.
From this photo we can notice further characteristics of that 36' as the setup of the engines side by side and consequently of the fuel tanks posts to bow of the dashboard and...the absence of the exhausts.
Do you have the date of the pic?

An interesting photo; indeed no through the hull exhaust! Sometimes on long trips that could be a nice feature...could.
i wonder if that version of a Cigarette/Cary was more popular among the clients of the business, not racers but boating enthusiasts

Here are some more photos of the middle boat - after it being brought to a Sport Class boat - I bought the Hull from Bertram for 1,500 bucks - it had a 1/8 inch plywood deck - which you could not walk on - so a teak deck as put on it . It still won a few races with the new look -
From the boat - it went to filming - nothing like having a huge fan above you to keep you cool on a hot summers day !
