    Default 55 "A" Outboard Hydros

    Of the 55 boats in AOH ... anybody have any memory of the various engines that were being run that year ... in other words how many were Konigs, Anzanis, Quincy, Mercs, (hotrods)? I was there but don't remember anymore

    That by this time the dominant engine was becoming the Konig FA, in either the original 2 pipe format or the single-pipe format that had a long run as the top engine until the Yamato's showed-up in the late 70's. I would guess also that the Quincy Loopers were at their performance peak, but losing ground against the sliding expansion chambers.

    Does anyone remember the woman driver from DePue named Mary?

    I count eight that I have driven against. I would have been 7 in 1972.

    I believe that we skipped this race, as the world championships were in Alexandria the following weekend. We went directly to Alexandria and the national particpants starting trickling in shortly thereafter. That was tough scheduling!!

    Default Region 4

    Region 4 was well represented that year with my Dad, our team mate Harry Schiffman, Mal Harden, Augustines, Shakshaft. Those were the best days.....
