Jim Hauenstein - Power By Mercury - Jim was also an accomplished Formula One tunnel boat racer & an attorney for his nationwide trucking company. Saddened by everyone who knew him, Jim passed away in January 1997 at a North Carolina P.R.O.P. tour race, in a turn & barrel-rolled, on the 29th lap, of a 30 lap race.http://cdn.c.photoshelter.com/img-get/I0000yBm76cCiv7U/s/900/900/jim-h-LV-9-029.jpg

Fujimo, posts 1414 & 1425 aren't showing the pics, only the comments you wrote. Quite a few pages back this same thing was happening, someone mentioned something about photos being linked to another site/needing permission to view them. Are these two posts I mentioned here photos you scanned & uploaded, or were they copied or saved from another site? Might be the issue with random photos not being visible to us. Or possibly a setting you need to change on your end to allow us access to view them?? I just know this is the most incredible thread I have ever followed on ANY forum on ANY subject, and I don't want to miss any of it. Just saying thank you for sharing it doesn't seem like enough. Regardless, thank you for taking the time & effort to share this journey with us :cheers:

Butch - That is not an easy one to find any information on. This is the best I could do....

"The Fino was raced by Bobby Rautbord and Butch Stokes in the Miami to Nassau Sam Griffith Memorial in 1970. The Fino would have been the fastest production boat in the world if it had not been for a blown engine."
