While at Magnum I took this picture.......the boat in the foreground has Michigan tags......it looks like the late Ted Theodoli driving....

Anyway.....I was thinking they might be these same 2 Michigan Sports?

What say ye?

Len......it's a photo of a photo at Magnum, in the manager's office......I took it last week.

I thought it looked like your boat and that is Ted Theodoli driving it......it was probably taken when it was new.

Please keep your boat as original as possible.....it's one of the best.

Ted Theodoli bought Magnum from Aronow in '76.......Aronow had just bought it back from Apeco but I may be wrong?

His wife Katrin Theodoli owns it now.....Ted passed away a few years ago.

I do think it's your boat too.

Aaron are you shure it's Ted ? I know the pic is a little fuzzy, it could also be Mark Mathis [in this Magnum pic] the owner of Emerald City Harbor the Magnum dealer, and ground zero of most of the Magnum's that raced here back then, but it also looks like Rich [beakman] one of the owners of that Mag. I dont remember Ted coming up here. I'm flying down to Key West Thursday to watch the worlds, Mark Mathis & most of the gang will be there and I will find out. But who ever it is it's a COOL SHOT !!! Did the Magnum make the trip back ok ??

27 MAGNUM

What is the word at the factory? Does the mother ship still consider us the red headed step child? Any support for all of the 27' Mag guy's out here... How about some reunion door prizes...or just host the bash...

That would make more sense Mark......the manager at Magnum just said it looked like Ted.........oh well....it is a cool shot.

They were polite but I didn't want to wear out my welcome.......the manager Harold made some reference to "no money" in the smaller boats.....oh well.....you can't blame them, they do the big boats pretty well!

As you recall I tried to get the 27 registration list from them but could not get them to release it.All I have is the maltese and the 25 sport. Bud
