Spooker XV

[F-12]

Does anybody know who ended up with Joe Michellini's boats after he passed away? I have a very close friend that is interested in finding the cabover he bought from her mother after her Dad was killed during a race in Frostproof, FL. The boat originally belonged to Gerry Waldman, one of the long line of 'Spooker' hydros. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

I bet Jerry Gravesen would know, he took over Airmarine from Joe after he passed.

The middle building at Airmarine was full of race motors of all sorts that Joe was experimenting with. many many gearcases and when I first started hanging out there in the late 60ies at least 2 cabover hydros.
