    Marshall Goldberg competed in "SJ" class with his boat named, "Daffy Duck"... Are you mixing up the 3-cylinder 49ci Stinger up with the V4 Johnson Stingers with the Scorpion shown in the driver's suit patches in first post?

    "On Saturday Muskie Poulin had defeated Marshall Goldberg's Daffy Duck in the SJ race, but Daffy's driver vowed it wouldn't happen twice."

    No, I mean the full race stinger 100 ci V4, That would have been a UJ engine. The fact that the article says he ran in SJ confirms that the motor on the boat in the picture would have to be a stock 125 or, more likely, a 135 horse production motor.
    By 1974, Mercury had the 1500, so he would have been overmatched. Thanks

    Bill, I guess it's possible the drivers suit I have is from Marshall's later years where he may have bought an OMC Stinger 100ci engine... Or Marshall added the only OMC patches he could find at the time and still ran a 125 or 135hp stock engine. Thanks.

    In this scan of the 1978 rule book, in the OPC marathon section, you can see that Marshall Goldberg won Mod 50 in 1977. Shows at that time he lived in Memphis Tennesee.
