I think that the Yellow boat noted is probably one that I built. Looks like what we called a "Sprint 67" which was a 40 boat with a 60 engine in it. Some REALLY nice looking boats on that wall !!!

Last time I saw Jim it was a garage full not a room/check out the other photos all those bins are full. Jim was a big racer in District 1 some years back.

I had a crapshooter 20 boat one that Marty made way back when great boat Robert

I was reading the end of the ebay listing as to who most of the boats belonged to. One name that stood out was Chris Carver. He raced out of New Jersey in the 80's and 90's with us in Virginia and Maryland. I remember he would bring 4 monos, 4 hydros and usually a Scale boat and more often than not, win EVERY class! His wife would fuel the boats and change the glow plugs between heats. And he could drive a boat, too. Don't know what happened to him, but he was the best racer I ever saw at the time. I can't imagine where he put all of the trophies that he won.........................

Dick I agree and all his boats were spot on all the time. If I remember correctly most if not all were Aeromarine hulls.

 

[Tim Kish]

This would have been a great find thirty years ago .
