    My dad had a Sid as well, a real Tank. It had the name "After you II" painted on the deck when he got it from Dick Ingebretsen, #185 in a pic earlier in this thread. Dick took second in UJ at St. Marys 1974. Here is a pic of Dad in 1975 that Mark Nelson took. Name:  Bill%20Richter%20Sr_Sid-Small.jpg

    Didn't you drive the same SE Pinel that John Sherlock also drove...very fast SE boat with a Merc 650XS?
    Bert Serra helped Mark Rotharmel in 1974 with a Merc powered U-class Molinari.

    Yes sir...'75 there were 2 SE Pinel's #6 was mine, #7 was Fred Finchum first, then John Sherlock took over. '76 was a redesigned new boat, yellow, #7 and yes it was very fast. John also took over the drive in this boat when I stopped driving. John went on to set a straightaway record at Wellen with this boat. Mark's Molinari was the same boat that won the single engine class at Havasu in '71, with Bob Hering driving.

    Thanks for remembering!

    Auglaize99,

    This is a great thread!

    I noticed that you have several pics with my boat in it - its the red #63 tunnel hull.

    I wasn't the driver back then, but I now own the boat and I'm slowly restoring it.

    Do you have any additional photographs of this boat (in the pits or on a trailer or whatever)...??

    I have enjoyed all of the history - and I love the early style tunnel boats.

    Keep the history coming!

    Thanks

    How we build changes with time - the fact that we build is more important.

    I think I've posted all the decent pictures that I have, but I will keep my eyes open.
