Wow, never seen that before
That's very cool, huh? Kiekhaefer Mercury did quite a few shoots there over the years, and for decades utilized Mercury outboards in all their ski shows/clown acts. Not sure, but the above photo looks to be in the same year(s) as the Lee Meriwether shoots. You may be too young to remember her...she was Miss San Francisco 1953, Miss California 1954, Miss America 1955, Batwoman, a well known actress & model, etc., etc.
My mom and dad were skiers there and I remember him talking about her. I will ask him about the photo tomorrow and Lee Meriwether.
Just talked to dad, said the boat was a Crosby and the passenger in the front is my moms best friend Still today Geri Haight.
Fish for lunch
