I was with Richie last week and he has a conference in Orlando to attend, but the mileage to Tavares is not too far so if he gets a break he may try to come up.

Seeroy,

If you scroll down to the bottom, Is John driving one of the 28' Donzis with the flat deck like Old Yellar and Dictator?

Definately Jon Bakos in that photo. Yes the boat was a red 28' flat deck just the same as my brother's "Old Yellar". Both ran these boats in the original
(1967) Bahama 500. Bill suffered a broken motor mount and did not finish. I am not sure, but I do not think that John finished either. I think that these 2 boats had both Donzi and Magnum labels attached. I am not familiar with the "Dictator" boat. - Steve Sirois
