There was a story about them checking out the Stadium races then showing up with a black Widow powered boat with an outdrive killed the field with Bill driving. Dougs motors were real good.

There use to be several on the race circut back in the early 1980's. One of the more successful boats was "Tight Rope". I think they were reffered to as a 30' . Other race boats were "Boogie Bear" and "Big Green Machine". They were great rough water boats. There were a few 40' Corsa raceboats, "Copper Kettle" and "Challange". Don't know anything else about their history.
An old 30' is/was sitting behind a car dealership in Brick NJ, don't know if it is/was for sale.
