MANGE, The 24' BANANA came from Aronow, the 33 & 38 were Coyote/ Banana, joint effort w/ J C Simon & Charlie. Look at the BANANA site for more. "HIGH LIFE"

Hi HIGH LIFE,

Yes I know the Banana Boat's, the 24 came from the Aronow cig 24, and the 38 was a JC-design. But what I mean is that Charlie would be the right guy to talk to when it comes to JC Simon boats

I met J C Simone at the 1975 Cedar Point Strohs race.. My friend John P was there racing his 26E Cary Hot Knots in P class. As I recall J C said he built them with a lighter french resin, & this was one of the last boats he built with Volvo drives. Even though she was lighter than a 27' Magnum this Cary was still 5 mph slower than a Trs Mag, but still a great ruff water boat.
