On some forums I read that could be the last of the saga of Mona Lou of Odell Lewis and that Mel Riggs took second place with a hair from the Aronow's bow in the Bahamas 500 1969.

Anyway do not listen on the side stern is written on. All wrong.

Can you give us some more info on Bobby Moore? He throttled our boat when it was Slap Shot. He has told me some great stories and I would like to know more.

I should be hangin' with the Formula Hydroplane, which reminds me I need to call Trent and see if he is gonna be there or around the AMF group somehwere. Look for the guy in the black shirt spilling beers(inside joke from last year, but I will be wearing a black shirt, and probably spill a few beers):cheers2:

I thought maybe this thread should come up again, as we close in on another Key West event where more memories will be made.

Sad to see some of the racers in some photos have passed their last finish line and are no longer among us....RIP boys and girls.

It is very tough. The last few years have not been good to us in many personal friends ways.
