In the 1968 Bahamas 500 with Tommy Mottola, when you all broke down and drifted for hours between the Barry islands and Nassau until a search plane found you .... was that with the Nova 24?

I was at Magnum that day and saw the whole thing, start to finish. Most of the accounts you read about it are dead true. It was pretty funny if you knew Don..

Yeah, but the search plane never found us. We fired all our flares except one, that stuck out the barrel about 4 inches. Neither of us wanted to look like Buckwheat, so we never fired it. Finally hailed down a freighter, the "Mereghan III" who agreed to tow us to Chub Cay. They had us on a 300 foot nylon towline and they were cooking bacon and eggs on the fantail. We hadn't eaten since the day before, and we were contemplating hand over handing up the rope. Got stuck on Chub for a week with the weather.
