I have seen posts by Marty B. (a friend of John), that John Steinbeck is alive and doing fine.
But we do know some of the Lake X alumni like Bill Sirois, John Bakos, and Roy Ridgell are deceased.
What race is this? The Raveau in the foreground looks to be going well. This is the sort of racing I started out in and it was CRAZY.Quote:

WORST DECISION of my racing career. Johnny Reed won the class in the 66 Gold Coast with that boat and pretty much beat me with it until I got My McCall.
