Here is one more pic of this cat now Flap Jack, racing on the Detroit river. I believe I took this one around 1980, 81 .

This boat was probably built around 77-78, I think Betty only used it for a year then sold it to Howard.

Boat sat for many years until Old ride saved it. Now it is sitting indoors , taken the deck off, soon it will flipped over and address the bottom. you can make out Kaama under the flap jack logo gives me goose bumps every time I see it. Jo
