You may have to register w/ HORBA!!!

Yea, But that isn't a bad thing. From what I've read HORBA puts on additional races and events just to showcase the older race boats!!

I'm not saying its a bad thing at all.
HORBA is one cool association.
That is one reason I was interested in this boat.
I'm sure they will also have knowledge to help you w/ your update/restoration.

Think I remember another 28 back then called Tadpole - same paint as the Tadpole 41 Banshee - chased down P-29 Scarab easily ... Congratulations FunHome and Enjoy.

Doug Popma ... Great Lakes Caster .... Think the add was 85 for 85 .... That yella one totally sucked me in !!!
