HORBA is thinking of putting together a set of photos .....that could be used in a man cave, garage, office, library, study etc.

What would you like if you could pick from old race photos from the 50's 60's 70's and 80's?

Poster size 18 X 36 or photo sizes like 11.X 8 inch size or both to pick from?

LOL , I totally agree . That 2nd pic is wild but I'm so sick of hearing the worn to a thread term 'man cave' that I now barf automatically. Not that it's Charlie's fault .
But I bet that Charlie and Lars could come up with a collection of photos that could keep us happy for decades .

No actually that was just some of the racers heading out to the first up and down the beach race course.

The course was a preview of today's race and was at the end of an inlet.

The course was a rectangle around that light house that went 150 yards either way.

The boat shown flying there won the race..... after making 2,500 laps of the lighthouse.

It was so popular, the promoters next decided they would make a new Key West race within the harbor itself, just so the boats would not have to actually deal with any waves.

​​​​​​​That race was won by a 18 foot 3 point hydroplane.....so the promoters put a stop to that...... saying from now on, any in the harbor racing with no waves, needed a 47 foot boat length as minimum to qualify. It is still very popular.

I think they would have to be poster size as there is no shortage of smaller pics that can be cut from old magazines.

Wouldn't mind seeing my boat on Horba's website. I already have a poster.

TENSION

Lol....I was standing on the railroad bridge the day that happened, the river did look like that! Unfortunately, the boats that washed out to the lake didn't fare too well going under the bridge.....!

Those are great photo's though! Either size for me!
