Ok, I never knew my Dad raced this Wing only the 802. Who was the "Flying Dutchman"? Is this Parker or Havasu? What year was this. As for the stern drive picture, we have that one, he was an instructor for a while somewhere. I did love wearing penny loafers.......guess I came about it honestly.Quote:
