John, It actually was a slotted deck Scotti, not a true pickle fork like Tim & Geoff Briggs' pickle fork Scotti. If you recall, I drove one with a V-4 at the Marine Stadium in Miami at the Rotary intro media show. McDonald later filled in the slots of that boat for me at the Naples test station. I believe both Rotary boats used at the Stadium show were originally slotted, but Nagode filled in the slots of those boats as well. I didn't like how the boat handled in the Parker 7 hr. with Muncey as my co-driver. The Parker race was the very next weekend after the Miami Rotary introduction. An earlier post by Ron Hill also mentioned that neither he nor Jimbo liked them either.
I meant to post this picture of the slooted boat I drove at the Rotary intro & at Parker. In Miami it had #9 & had previously been driven by Ron Hill. For Parker I had my number on it.
Here is a betetr picture of the Slotted Scotti. BTW they guy with the waders holding my boat getting ready for the start of the race was Tim Briggs, the driver of the #30 Scotti at the 1974 Paris 6 hour.

If you look closely at the top left picture in the previous post you can see the 02 with the Johnson Rotary and the 03 Evinrude behind it.
Here is a better picture John
and one picture from OMC Racing, Belgium a few days before Paris 1974

From that picture it appears to be Mouse in front of the 02, Posey standing on the back of the boat and Sanders in the drivers seat. Not sure who is standing next to Posey in the Johnson Jacket
