It's exactly in the same spot as in the other post on it...guess it wouldn't need as much work as thought since it's aluminum....

Yea, that boat was originally raced out of Rochester, NY where I live. I used to date the owner's secretary at the time too. He never had much success with the Lambos, but they sounded sweet - as you heard in the video of Key West. The biggest problem with that team was that they had no sponsors, so the owner funded everything. As you might guess, that's pretty tough on a bank account. After the owner's construction business went belly up, parts of the boat, then the whole boat slowly disappeared.

And for the history buffs out there, the "dents" in the bow portions of the sponsons (from hitting waves) were called a "Cougar Smile."

Slug Hefner raced the Dirty Duck for several seasons as well. His current ride is a 1350 powered Skater...
