Yes we ran @ night and it was "dark"!
Compass and dead reckoning along w/ the RDF.
That is why we ran up on a sandbar in the Carolinas.

Hey Pepe,

Do you have the article in a bit higher resolution - that one was a bit too hard to read :traurig001:

Pepe,
Just out of curiosity,
1) How many gallons of fuel did the boat hold?
2) How many stops did you have to make to refuel?
3) Where were your gas stops?

I remember watching you race in that boat in the 1979Benihanna Grand Prix.
