Some old OPC scans...

It does look look like a Broughton with the cowls replaced. Heres another shot of the same hull, Bill Richter Sr in the other boat. The class is Mod 100, 1978 or 1979. I wish I could remember the race location....that building in the first picture looks so familiar.

Do you think it could be Danville, IL?

Is the motor on the top scatcraft an omc with stacks?

[Lars Strom]

I think it is a Johnson FT-10 S..(a 55hp powerhead on the same midsection I used on the Evinrude65 SS 1973).

The pipes are not from OMC..

Pretty sure it is the motor Lars says. I think it would have been a legal "R" class rig.


What year was the pic of Ingebretsen's Moli taken? Its a beautiful boat, and a fantastic picture.

No capsule.... With Brad MIller's Crazy Horse, on a 125 MPH Keller, seems I saw 122 MPH. After Parker 1979, I parked that boat and never got in a tunnel again.

I remember Bill Seebold calling my Dad from wherever Billy first blew over in a capsule. Seems like it might have been Parker or Havasu. Bill was telling my Dad how much difference that capsule made. He was telling it like a bad blowever was just about like a cakewalk. Billy had no injuries.

Note the water brakes on Ingebretsens boat . I remember when the when they tried this they must not have worked out to well only saw a few boats with them . Sam Hemp had them on a DSH one time i think they might have been for show are he may have tried them i'am not sure.

Somewhere in one of my Powerboat & Waterskiing magazines is a picture of Renato Molinari's boat coming apart after he applied water brakes he had just mounted on his boat. I believe it was at Bristol, England.

It was either 1978 or 1979, The same Clinton Iowa race as the first couple of pictures on this thread.
