Curious if anyone knows who the driver might be in this boat (and maybe where and what year)?:

I see Gordon every once in a while, when I'm back in Ohio. I'll have to tell him and his brother Mike to join the board. The guys know alot of old racing history from the 60s and 70s.

I'm originally from OH, grew up at Indian Lake. I knew guys that sold (and raced factory boats) for CM at the time (early '70's). Gordon re-gelled my MX18 in '76, cool guy. It would be great to have those guys on here. I see Kip Combs is on!
