Thanks, that is one of the things we hope to do for the fans, as you can see by the picture that Scott B posted, there was a great deal of fan support.
Rocky Aoki and me in our better days and at the NY Boat Show last week.

Re: Save the Old Race Boats
Just got an email from France....there is an owner there with two boats that he wants to sell.
First is an '82 CUV 38 foot that was a former Rothmans boat, won UIM championship and was former Cowes Torquay winner.
The second is a '78 Cobra 38 foot, like the old Beep Beep but now powered with BPM engines that are V-12's with 650hp each.
He is into vintage and muscle cars too, so he would take a partial / trade and he can handle all the shipping details.
In France his number is 33 607 09 62 26
I asked him to keep his eye out for any other boats of this vintage that might be sitting around over there.
