This is a Polaroid of the first enclopsed canopy race boat in History.

It was a 28 we built in 1985 powered with twin 650 HP small blocks from United racing .It had Recaro sit down race seats shock absorbed mounted,Air tanks in the cockpit, and 5 point harnesses.

We took this boat to the APBA race in 1985 here in Miami and they told us it was to far ahead of its time.Afew months later a few superboats had the same concept.We got credit for being the innovators in this race technology.
