Jack:

Great picture. If I could evert figure out how to use my scanner and attach pictures, I have a ton more like the one you posted.

Check this one...

Pittsburg (California) Very early 1960's 50 mile marathon Clutless Floater. Twin Scotts driven by Del Phipp's DAD....

Ron, you got the part about asking Lauren right.

I am going to try to add a picture to this post, figured oput the scanner, so this is the next step.

the picture is Dick Scherrer in I believe an 18" Glastron molinari, with my dad driving what was at that time Dick's CT-15. My dad owned the boat. to this day, it is my favorite of all the boat's he had.

Needles Marathon 1970 is my guess. Now than Lauren has shown you how to post, let's see a picture of her boat and her mom's boat under the Women in Boat Racing section....

Any tips on using the scanner, considering, I still haven't posted a picture from the scanner!!!!

That was Dick's 18 foot Molinari, right??? Not eh 21 footer he ran at Havasu!!!

Great picture, actually!!!!

Joe,
If you want to learn how to use your scanner, find someone who has Pagis or you can purchase. Very inexpensive! Once you install, it is 1-2-3. No knowledge required! If you email me, I'll send you a copy.

Actually, I figured it out myself. And it only took me about 30 minutes, with a lot of trial and error.

I will post some stuff of Teri and Lauren soon.

Now that I can do this, I will have to open up my dad's scrapbook and scan a bunch of stuff.

Joe, I would like that a lot

[Miss BK]

Yes, Joe, I sure would like that too!

Boy did I love your dad.

Both he and Ted May were like Uncles to me and my brother. Mike was especially close to him. I never told you, but one time in Havasu, your dad sat me down on the sidewalk outside the hotel and warned me of something he saw coming regarding my non-boat related future. But I didn't listen. And I sure paid a price for that! I will always regret that I didn't heed his advice. I'll have to fill you in sometime. When it came to advice he gave me, your dad was always right.
