All I can say I’m turning A tunnel boat and a race if it’s over five laps you’ll wish you were racing something else. Several of the longest races in the morning stadium with leave your right side black and blue even though I used to run motorcycle kidney belts two At a time underneath my Gentex life jacket. I finally started putting a piece of flexible plastic on my right side To keep from looking like I’ve been kicked by a mule. Racing inboards and turning left Wasn’t quite as bad

All these issues disappeared with safety cells and 5 point harnesses but created a host of new problems like air supplies, rescue, radio communications, hans devices, and so on. This also added cost and wiped out the APBA category numbers that we had in the past.

...amen to that gene. until someone has run offshore to experience the abuse, they will never know. i have pulled my arms out of my shoulders & had three doctors pulling & twisting it to get it back in place, cut finger tips off & sewn back on, been slammed to the side so hard i saw stars, been slammed to the floor over & over again, etc...all for the love of offshore. hey wait a minute, that could explain a few things couldn't it?...:rolleyes:...

I cannot disagree

I cannot disagree there’s nothing rougher than natural offshore. I’m talking about the old off shore not the close course stuff they do today. The Miami Nassau race in 6 foot seas at 65 or 70 mph. I don’t know about this last picture Fujimoto I think you got a little bit ahead of yourself

GENE Flying red Bird on the Marine Stadium course coming around the outside island in one of the six or nine hour marathon. Outside the island is like an ocean race.

Fujimo, would this be Long Beach Marine stadium.
My first experience around boat racing was watching our close family friend Delbert Teague run one of these kneel downs with a screaming tower of power clamped on as a kid.
He would run the drags and then compete in the all classes Enduro to make some money.
Delbert set a speed record in the mid 70's in his class.
I will try to find some pictures.

In my 9 year stint as Product Assurance Engineer, I wrote more than 700 test requests for Oshkosh, Placida, and the Lake. Then the 1989 crunch came and our entire department was chopped. Left a very bad taste in my mouth for sure. The first big engine without my test program was the 3 litre. Several engineers on that program would call me for advice on what and how many, etc. should they test. I could have told them to shove it, but I didn't - I bled black then and now.513413

Nope......don't agree with you. If they want answers or advice, tell them to open their wallets. Company saved $$$ by chopping you off the payroll then tries to save $$$ again by "knowledge transfer". They had a chance to document what was in your head and blew it. HR organizations are idiots.

I had 24 1/2 years in at that time, 2 small kids at home, and suddenly out of a job. The service department had made cuts but they cut too deep or got rid of some dead wood. I got back in as a senior technical writer and they continued my service time. insurance, etc., but I did take a pay grade hit. It hurt for a while but I worked my way up and out into the world of OEM service, working with boat companies, which also got me a move to Florida for 5 years. Then I made a mistake in my career and went back to the FDL offices in the accessory division, to bring SmartCraft on line, but could not hack the 5 day sit at your desk routine after having been on the road. So back on the road in Wisconsin and Minnesota, and left with a decent package at age 62. I will be 77 in January - and at present don't even own a boat!
