I remember my Dad, saying Carl Kiekhaefer did not like guys using an adjustable wrench.

I never used an adjustable wrench, when I had the right size wrench in the tool box.

I have one of those in my small collection. Right above the FORCE one - to get the Force cert you had to know the difference between a hammer and an adjustable wrench - 513589

In April of 1978 a good friend and I drove to St. Louis hoping to buy Michael's yellow & white #286 for me to run SE class here in Canada with a Merc 650 XS.
By the time we got there Bill told me Michael didn't want him to sell this boat so I bought another Seebold SE hull that Bill had available.

#515 is Jim Caldwell who came to Canada a few times to run MOD 50. I bought a couple of 3-blade over-the-hub cleavers from Jim.

How did you manage to get all the way to St. Louis to become a victim of bait (#286) and switch (SE hull)? Sounds to me like #286 had something "different" built into it by BeBe Crum? Bought one of the first Seebold all composite SST140 hulls they made. Was a porpoising dog that never did run right. Hull halves split apart in the first race it was ever in at Portland Oregon. Bill Joule and Tim Seebold were the only ones who made them run right. The rest of us struggled. Finally dumped it for 1/3 of its cost in 2008 when it was clear that OPC racing would tank for good.

How did you manage to get all the way to St. Louis to become a victim of bait (#286) and switch (SE hull)?

Absolutely not. Bill Seebold was beyond helpful and excellent to deal with. You have to remember this was 1978 - no cell phones, no e-mail.
Every time I called Bill took the time to talk with me and I was well aware that the #286 may or may not be available and there was another less expensive SE hull that was available for sure

Absolutely no regrets with the hull I ended up with. Had plenty of fun in 1978 & 1979, made several good friends that I still have to this day and sold my boat, motor and trailer in 1980 for virtually what I had invested. SE was a great class back then, we often had 10 to 15 boats and I was very competitive once we got the set-up right. The person who bought my boat ran it for another few years and he also did very well with it.
