Classic Offshore Pictures from Bugsy (Brian Moran)

[Offshore Ginger]

Was Pete's first cat a Skater 32' with one of the first canopy's around 1985? I remember everyone saying it looked like a RC toy boat. But when we raced against him in Modified class in 1986, 87 he was in his canopyed Shadow cat. Also was Pete's Shadow cat the old El Boss now with a canopy ? Than at the 1991 worlds Pete shows up in Key West with our old Motor City Magic Image cat with beaks added, needed to run in open class, now called Ray Ban, American Dream. Sadly his driver was killed in that race running in our old Image cat. I heard the old Image cat was in a boat yard down in the Key's rotting away.

Mark , i still think that the old 32-Skater -American Dream is still sitting in the very first storage barn behind the plant ,and from what i remember it was still there in 2001-2002 .

I will have to ask Bob C to find out, I believe he has been up to Skater a few times watching the new Flight Club being built.
