Apache

Re: Bill Westberry
 

Thanks for the info. A friend of mine is doing some business with Bill in Texas and I thought getting some racing history might be of interest to him.

Re: Bill Westberry
 

Hey Ron,
You can tell your friend in Texas that you rode in one of Bill W.'s former race boats....."Spirit Of Houston" #13 was "Kid Apache" #89 and is now Hot Ducks boat!

Re: Bill Westberry
 

The former "Harmsco Hurricane", "Pennzoil" boat is now listed on E-bay without power. According to the photos, it has not been converted to a pleasure boat-still a two seat canopied boat.

I got to drive that boat as Penzoil with Nicky Cutro in Key West...we beat High Risk for the Worlds. Nicky is really smooth and ran smart...followed Rick most of the race then passed in the harbor with 2 laps to go. Awesome.

Paul, it's nice to have you on OSO, welcome to the madness.

Waterboy, I've got that covered.

The 32' skater is listed on ebay for a min. bid of 40G with no bids.

A few years back at the Worlds in KW, Spirt of Houston raced the afternoon race with just one person onboard, seems his crew did not show up, so he went ahead and raced it by himself anyway!!!
I saw this and he was incredible racing that big Apache solo!!!
I think he was a lawyer from the NY area, does anybody know his name?

Re: Bill Westberry
 

He had a really rough voice and wore a head-dress all the time...kind of short...Alan something? Had an Apache Cat pleasure boat.
