Thanks for pointing that out Mark! I couldn't figure out what that was. At first it looked like crash damage until I looked closer.

Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
Mn1, since you are tunnel boat builder I used a similar flap in the tunnel of my McCall tunnel. It reduced the amount of air coming into the tunnel. I used it running into the wind, drop the flap and sucked the boat down to the water and let you run hard into the wind. It was powered by a station wagon rear window motor controlled from a switch on the steering wheel. Sorry I dont have a picture of that.
Mark 75, how do I find how many hits on the BRF post? Where do I look?
Ray, you just go to the forum that the thread is posted in where you can see the other threads. In this case, the Outboard History forum. You can get to it from each page of the thread by looking at the top of the page for the words Outboard History in blue with a line under it, just above where you see this thread's title (Region 3/4/5 OPC notables). After you are on that forum's page you will see the names of the threads on the left. (If the thread you are interested in has not been updated recently, you will have to scroll down the page or click on another less recent page to find it.) Follow across to the right you see who the last responder to the thread was, the number of replies and the number of views. Region 3/4/5 notables has over 800 views now!
