I have first edition copies of SEARACE did John update it through the years? If he did where can I buy it?
How old is John now anyway and how is is health?
His knowledge of the sport is unmatched I would think?
What a great guy and simply unforgetable. My fathers racing misadventures just used to crack him up to no end.

After a two day battle over 275 miles of Atlantic Ocean, Odell Lewis in Mona Lou II #49, beats Bill Sirois #90 by seven seconds.
#49 was a 32 foot aluminum Maritime and #90 was a 31 foot Bertram. Power for both boats were twin 475 HP Mercruiser sterndrives.
This close finish was a copy of the same two boats and crews finishing the Bahama's 500 in the same year.
