First picture: Not sure about these but I think 266 is Lon Sawyer and 16 is Joy Gohr.
The location was Libertyville Illinois, 6-23-1985.
Second picture: Bill Richter Sr.in boat, me on the pier holding the boat. Can't remember where.

What hull and vintage is the #244 in the pictures. I would love to find and restore one some day. Those are the OPC boats I remember watching when I first started getting into performance boats.
Thanks for the awesome pictures!

That 244 boat looks a lot like my old Broughton.
It does look look like a Broughton with the cowls replaced. Heres another shot of the same hull, Bill Richter Sr in the other boat. The class is Mod 100, 1978 or 1979. I wish I could remember the race location....that building in the first picture looks so familiar.
I remember these kneeldowns were pretty popular at one time.
Is the motor on the top scatcraft an omc with stacks?
I think it is a Johnson FT-10 S..(a 55hp powerhead on the same midsection I used on the Evinrude65 SS 1973).
The pipes are not from OMC..
