The late Bob Nordskog raced them actively in the 70's and 80's, The late Tom Gentry set numerous World Offshore records with them over at least a 10 year span ("Gentry Turbo Eagle" hulls). Bobby Moore rigged a number of boats with Gentry power.... "How Sweet It is", etc and all of the major diesel powered hulls have been turbo charged since the 70's....?

Not so sure where the comment "finally started with turbos" comes from.

That Turbo install in the skater to me looks like "Just make it work"
