Re: OLD RACE BOATS - Where are they now?
I bought an old Sutphen and spent a year bringing it back from the dead. Let me rephrase.....I just refurbed the engines, drives, and electrical system of an old Sutphen race boat. The hull is built like a brick **** house. No problems there!!!!!
Anyways... She was called ALL RISK and was raced in the early eighties. It was orange/red and white.
Please, please tell me that someone has some old race pics of her. If you do please POST them!!!!!!!
Here's a pic of her now......nevermind......can someone please explain to my dumb ass how to post a picture.
Thanks

Jr..... How did you come up with that pic from New Z? That's just amazing. Did'nt one of the Lavin brothers pass away back in the early 90's? I bought 2 pr. of Stelling exhausts from Chriss Lavin back in 1990. At that time I believe that Chriss said that they had (4)????? boats?????

Mark Lavin was killed in KW in 1986. The team raced a few years after that and built a 48' 4 engine Conquest that only raced a couple of times. They had a 28' Cig., 30' Chris Cat, 35' Conquest, and 48' Conquest, and a couger cub

Excalibur 30 Cat. I found this for sale. Says it is on LOTO. It looks like it is in really nice shape. This boat was formally owned and raced by my godfather, Edward Muse out of Texas. He owned Mr. Smoker and Mr. Smoker Racing. Some neat History. http://www.wavecatchers.com/boats4sale/
