I think they were surprised to see an old racer still being able to move around at all.

So Mickey again, before you brought Talvisota up I hadn`t heard about it beeing a racer. :p :cool: But you can PM me the whereabouts and stories about it. And yes, I know what kind of event the Hango-regatta is, I am just there for the party. :drink:

Nothing further to discuss IMO about it.
Just a 385 Stinger that has all its foam removed and filled with fiberglass in the transom and engine bay area making it real brittle in every year it gets older.
But the other raceboats mainly all them cats of the period are something else..and that one 46 Cougar that kept those Cats alert then.
No Luuk I donīt think I have your mail.
I was supposed to go blowboat racing this weekend but no time for that hobby this summer.
Have other interests, mainly real estate.

Not really vintage, but I have restored one old race boat. There are no doubt many more in my future! It can get expensive, but it is very rewarding.
