I knew Rosmary very well. She raced Raveau OPC in the 60's in South Florida. She and Treasure Stokes were two very pretty ladies that could also drive race boats. She and her husband Phil had a number of boats including a 15 foot raveau the "Little Treasure", driven by Treasure and Butch Stokes, a 16 foot Raveau # 64 driven by Rosemary and Richie Baiz (one of my best friends back then) a hydro driven by Fred Glick and a single engine Switzer powered by a Merc 100.
Rosmary, Phil and their "team" were a huge part of S Florida racing history. Phil loaned me a pair of 6 cylinder Mercs with speedmasters that I ran on a Powercat in the Gold Coast Marathon, finishing 6 or 7th overall and 3 outboard overall.
I got Jimmy Sewares to come to OFF2011, maybe we can get Rosmary to come to OFF 2012Last edited by velox; 06-16-2012 at 08:32 PM.
