Chatim,
Great pics!! It's great hearing about the classics first hand from someone who was there. Just a couple of miner clarifications, Rocky first raced a 28' Barcone (S-911) in sportsman class prior to purchasing "Spirit". "Copper Kettle" in post 74 is a "Gara" hull-later the molds were sold to Corsa. Question-In post 75, what boat is 452 "Killer...", it appears to be a 28 Bertram. Any idea what hull this is?? Keep the pics coming! Phil |
