Thank You all for your support. We all have loved ones or we ourselves deal with some serious maelstroms at times. My mother had the crap I've got and passed at 43 after

18 months of serious suffering. Treatments nowadays are much more tailor-made, but these kinds of cancers are the same as ever. There's no cure and all one is

able to do is eat right, exercise, sleep well and avoid stressful sh.t. In other words, all the stuff one should normally do anyway. Side effects are nasty, but previously

having set up everything for my wife and other loved ones, so they will have no financial worries when I'm gonzo was always my goal. I've actually haven't been this

content and enjoyed every day to its fullest since I was a kiddo playing with my self-made toy boats along our docks and granite rocks in the Archipelago of

Stockholm. The King of Sweden bought a Magnum 35 around 1975 that he named Green Beam and it was the first American-made Magnum I saw. When Don raced

in Sweden 1966 and 1967 I was a toddler. The King often came to our neighbors and we'd jump in our small boats and escort him in. His friend Sten Kreuger was the

nephew of Ivar Kreuger who had a monopoly on matches, in the 1920s, through his Swedish Match Co. he gobbled up companies in the U.S. and continental Europe,

went delinquent and to a great deal caused The Great Depression. Our other neighbor had Scandinavian distribution rights for Riva Boats, Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini.

Interesting times for us kids, but all the islands, fishing, sailing, windsurfing, and eventually speedboating was what it was all about, In a sense Swedish children

post WWII until 1980 had it better than any generation in our history.


During my 40 years in America, the quality of life for the majority of Swedish people has got

worse and worse. The ones of our generation who stayed on track have never had it better, but that's now less than 10% of the population. Danish, Norwegian,

and Finnish people in general have a better life than most Swedish people now. I'm grateful for my adventures in the U.S. It's been a lot of hard work, but working

hard and playing almost as hard is truly rewarding and I've got a feeling that most guys that have been around on this forum since the start share those qualities.

Keep the boating up and by the way, who's got an original Donzi Marine 28?

P.S. I sure look forward to more old threads or stories Tommy. Couldn't agree more about spotting an old high-performance boat, and not even noticing the seven

figure cats with anything from twin Mercury Racing 1,100 to quad Mercury 1,550 motors. D.S.

Posted in the wrong thread. It belongs in Tommymonza's 1970s Miami Glamour Boats.

1970 by Bertram proposed cruiser: 32 Rough, based on the older widebeam race boat hull.
