Not claiming to be an entomologist, or even an expert on mud daubers, but they will still find the holes on the front of the lower unit. Also, go in an old barn looking for VW parts(or your...

Wayne,
You got mud dobbers! Bad for water cooled engines :)

I might be a little biased, but nearly everyone that ran 125 in those days went on to win APBA or UIM championships in everything from 250(OA) to
F1(OZ).

Between Trebor and Pete I believe is Todd Brinkman, John Stevens is right behind him.

In the other boat pics, V17 is Clyde Queen and 11 is Jeff Hutchins.

Looking at the photo that DeSouza put names to I see several more. In the bottom left with curly blonde hair and hat, Tom Kirts Jr just behind him, Todd Warren. Center right is Pete Hellsten with...

My Dad and Mom went to Claudes "99" birthday party about a month ago, It was on short notice and I was working. His wife, Julie, was at the Louisville Boat meeting and invited everyone. The party was...

I think I know why Danish Sushi didn't catch on :)
Glad to see you were in the MBZ, at first I thought you may be in the green Renault 4TL in the first pic. Also, if anyone wants to know, thats a...

OK viewers, once again, Wayne has just laid down some outstanding photos.

See how narrow the canal was? Thats about as close to actual size in a pic that I've seen. A couple of shot's of mine...

Tegal looked the same in 1986, just the boats and cars were a little newer, the Americans still had the "funny" looking boats...and oh yeah, the hair was higher. I suppose the "shark" tour boat made...

Wayne,

I just have to add that your photos are AWESOME!

This sort of tinkering is why I always wondered why people were trying to improve Dieter's work? I guess it's easier to blame the engine maker or boat builder than just to admit you are bad at set up...

Now would be a good time for me to re-iterate my description of a runabout.

RUNABOUT : noun & verb- Run about so far and tip over.

Coincidence? I think not.

Seeing the pic of the boat in a box got me to thinking about maps. Here's a link to a sat image of where I think the Konig factory was. It's actually a little below the green arrow on the right side...

Thats also a nice pic of the "half A" What do you do with a Konig FA once a rod breaks the block?, cut the bad part off and make a 125cc engine!

I had one too, but we broke the top cylinder, used...

That overnight storm was the one that crashed my Hedlund. It was pointing to the lake with the Y-80 on back. The wind "blew it over" onto the Hardins trailer. Crunched the nose a little, I don't...

We are firmly seated in "The Wayback Machine" now.

"X" is me in the MOH/125cc boat I mentioned above. As usuall, the exhaust has broken and I've gone from 25 horsepower to 10:(

V-1 is Jeff...

Wait a minute, I'M doing the towing! Thats Frank Milner on the hook. He "tested" alot too. We all did. Twenty gallons to test, four to race.

Hey look, my post count is 66, where's the lottery...

WOO HOO I made the thread, I made the thread!!!!
Look closely, the number is #66, the number of the late Mark Donahue. I don't know why Gary chose #67?

Yes, those are rookie stripes. 1977 was my...
