Yes, I have seen that one. It is very possible that Bob Cox's "Marina Seven" race boat was delivered to him and Ed Joyce as a St. Tropez. The Hornet 19 and St. Tropez 19 hulls are identical.
Mr. Darwick's note to you makes perfect sense so that explains it! That specific 16 was delivered by the factory in December of 1964. You can tell by looking closely at the photos that the hull was the exact same 16 Ski Sporter entered in both Orange Bowl 9 Hour Races by Fred. The stickers show the American flag first followed by Sweden, a tribute to the new partnership with Volvo?
Then, I noticed that Bob Cox's "Lauderdale Marine" is listed as one of the two Donzi dealers in the ad.
Now, I wonder if Bob Cox got the next 16 Ski Sporter off the assembly line or if the 19 Hornet outboard came to him first?

For those of you from South Florida, does the name Joe Daoub ring any bells from the mid 1960's ?

I don't believe so, I think the spelling is Daoub. Did Jody race in the area in '64 '65 '66 ?

Joe Daoub or Daoud evidently raced with Bob Cox and Ed Joyce in several of the 1965 races.
He was from Miami so I figured I would throw it out there to see if it rang any 50 year old bells amongst you all and led to more Cox/Joyce stuff as FUJIMO has gone silent lol.

I continue to poke around on the topic of Bob Cox and the "Marina Seven" 19' race boat..........
In researching it, I think that Bob and Ed Joyce (commented on below) winning the 1965 Sam Griffith Memorial "Outboard Class" is actually NOT correct. That particular race was actually won by Jerry Langer and Davey Wilson running Evinrudes in the OB Class. That still leaves the three other races to check out.
Picture of Wilson (L) and Langer below.
His name was Bob Cox. Bob and his Marina General Manager, Ed Joyce raced in a number of Offshore races. In 1965 alone, they entered and won........
The St. Petersburg 50 Mile Ocean Race
The Pelican Harbour 100 mile Gulf Stream Regatta
The Orange Bowl Regatta
The Sam Griffith Memorial
They also placed third in the '65 Miami-Nassau race. The boat was a 1965 19 Donzi Hornet outboard.

In doing some more research, I believe you are correct lilabner. He evidently went by "Jody" and the correct spelling on the last name I believe is Daoud. He would have been from Miami Beach.
Does this person from about '65 ring a bell to you?

He was a good friend of my boss, Bobby Rautbord. I don't remember much about him. Brownie may.
