1986 Open Class National Champ Apache
Quick question the rules back in 1986 were that the points went to the boat not the driver. The last race of the season Apache used Sal's 36 ft Seahawk boat to win the championship. Apache stuffed their cat the race prior and was damaged.
Was their an exception to rules because of this?

The way I remember it was someone was registered as driver of record. The points followed him. There was a provision to allow a boat change. I could pull out the old book and see but some one else will know the fine details.

Sodus Point before later crash that day
Ben Kramer was the driver of record.
