Ozark Fun

This may not be the correct place to post, but I'm hoping someone has a recollection...

When I was a kid in the late 1970's or perhaps even '80 we went to Lake of the Ozarks and there was this really cool, really loud black boat with red seats that looked like a race car on the inside. It was very loud and very fast. I remember the guy docking and me and my dad made it over and chatted with him for a bit. He was nice and happy to get the attention from all who were admiring the boat. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone remembers this boat and especially, if anyone has a picture of it that I could put into a little story, a personal story I will share with friends and family. Let me know!

Thanks!

This it? 35' cig called Nasty.

It could be Bill Dahl from East Peoria Illinois. He has had several black boats named Nasty. The one I remember was a Sutphen with Lambo power. He's probably banned from LOTO for noise.

I don't believe that was the one. As I recall, the writing was silver and definitely had the "Mr." in front of "Nasty" more towards the bow. But thanks!

I will look into that... Yes, this boat was so loud, very.

Same guy owned Mr Nasty and 35 Cig Nasty. Mr Nasty was black 39 Cig with big power, dry exsaust ETC.
His Name was Gary Stuie ( sp ? ) from Chicago. In the 90's he raced 26 Scarab called RUM RUNNER. Boat had a 3rd seat for his wife to ride along. He passed few years ago.

Wow, good information, thanks! I do seem to recall a fancy exhaust system on that boat. It sure was loud!

I too have been looking for a pic of that boat. I remember as a kid seeing it once at LOTO. We went to some boat drag races and he pulled up in that black beast. It sounded good! It was the only thing like it around.
