Buck rolling
Same boat, following race and was leading.....what happens when crank breaks at the fly wheel then cuts the fuel line!!!
I was there when Buck's boat caught fire.
And I was very impressed when several race boats turned their transom toward Buck's boat and blasted it with their watery roostertails before the fire boat came on scene. They nearly put the fire out themselves. Pretty amazing.
Thanks for the pictures.
I forgot about the boats and rooster tails trying to put that out, that was pretty cool.
one more....Miami Stadium.
Just saw the name Buck Thornton so thought I'd post this shot I took at Bristol in England, it was during the 1980s but I'm not sure of the exact year.
Wow what a beautiful boat, if you have more pictures from that era, please post ‘emOriginally Posted by mintominto
Is the ship watch boat (grey and red) the one he flipped in the marine stadium in miami...79 or 80?Originally Posted by David Pergande
Here are 2 more Buck Thorton pics;
Merc powered Lee Craft, 1978 or 1979.
Johnson V8 powered Lee Craft 1983.
Those are good shots but not the ride I am thinking of, I thought it was a Seebold hull but could be wrong. My mind isnt quite what it used to be
Lake Charles, La.
