I remember an old race boat called The Sorcerer, The boat was owned by Jim Vaughn out of Eastlake, OH along with Rascal 333 also out of Eastlake in the early to mid 80s
Does anybody have pics and info of this boat? I think it is a 30-33' Velocity what power/drives, speed and where/condition it's in now.
Thanks, Troy

The boat is 30' Corsa. Owned by Bobby O and sitting next to his house covered for many years.
Boat came out of Florida from Greg Gluck and became Rascal winning a couple divisional titles with Frank Cichon, George Rossi and Bobby O on board.
When the 40' Caricoff came home the Corsa ran for one more season then was sold to Jim Vaughn and then to Tim Walters who bother raced it as Sourcerer.
Not exactly sure when Bobby O bought it but he did alot of work to it including rebuilt engines and drives, paint, transom and much more. I think he even set it up for a back seat.
I bet for the right money someone could finish this thing up and have a really cool old boat with alot of history.

WOW!!!! I didnt realize Sorcerer was the old little "Rascal" as I alway called it when Frank got the Caicoff "Rascal" very cool knowimg that. His boats damn near alway won back in the day.
I remember the 95' Sandusky race "The Battle of Lake Erie" that Dennis Kieser of "Jaws" hosted. CT Peppers beat Rascal by maybe a boat length in class D. AWESOME RACE and race weekend ALL the divisional and national teams where there: Ohio Steel cat, Heavy Metal, Alcone, 'Nuff Respect etc. Those were the days many classes many boats in them as well!!!
Hey thanks for the info Andy!!!! any more pics? would be cool to have a few more.
Maybe swing by Bob's place today or tomorrow and take a gander if he's there to see?????
