- the one that had Air Ride across the front is on Marco Island. It’s owned by Duane Thomas. He has had it for sale earlier in the year but not sure if he sold it. Look up Duane Thomas Construction on Marco Island fl.

Joe Detore had an all black one named "East Coast Marine" He and Joe Imprescia raced it for a season or two before Joe D purchased his Shadow Cat. My Brother Philip and I Spent a lot of time chasing it in race after race, very fast in rough water. No one ever actually knew what power it had from race to race, Joe Imprescia was both throttle man, rigger, and engine builder.
I also seem to remember a triple engine outboard 27 raced for a while.
By the way, "Air Ride" was owned and raced by Alan Swiman and his wife often raced in the boat with him if I recall. Air Ride may have been Detore's boat, not too sure about that though.

Some 1987 footage of Air-Ride with Alan Swiman on throttles and Greg Sandonato driving. They won the World Series C-Class here in Key West.
