    Hans Moen was one of the early adopters of the new Quincy loopers, a bit unusual in opting for a C rather than the D's that were more popular in Reg. 10. And don't forget his son Dick, who was a stalwart in B Hydro with a good-running looper/Karelsen for several years during the late-'60s, early-'70s.

    Dick is in one of the Region 10 columns coming up. This one is June 1970.

    Try again J-Dub. I have had a lot of trouble with the attachment notice too, but I think I got it now. I would like to see the picture.

    This is the last one from 1970. September.

    It was my first full year of racing as an APBA member so I don't have anything before that except the couple of Propellers that Johnny Dortch gave me. I'm happy to see that some of the Region 10 guys are enjoying the posts. What few times we raced out there we had a great time, and everyone was glad to see us and those were days I will never forget.

    I enjoy reading about the Quinault Canoe racers. If any of the Quinault people remember Jim Jackson, Please contact me.

    We built a lot of motors for the Quinaults and Jim was Tribal Chairman at the time. Jim made several trips to Quincy and we developed a strong friendship.

    Jim invited me out to Washington to race one of his canoes. I graciously declined saying I would probably flip the "damn thing".

    Jim responded, "Probably so, you white boys aren't very coordinated"!

    J-Dub:

    Is that your Dad's knee showing above the side of the cockpit? Doesn't seem possible.

    Bruce, I remember asking him about that too. I think he told me he had been adjusting the carb.
