Lars, it was great meeting you Thursday afternoon at the bar. My Wife was in awe of all of the legends in one place, all of the drivers I have told her stories about. She was so tickled that you spent a few minutes talking with us.
We took hundreds of pictures over the weekend and here are a few.
Myself, Mr. Bill and Ben Robertson Sr.

This was the Saturday finale, I am the blue shirt on the farthest right of the beach launch. That water is just as cold as my Dad told me it was back in the '80s when he stood on the beach there with their ModVP boat.

Bringing the crossflow into the 21st century
Two of the very best people that means everything to me in one great picture.
I am so proud of my beautiful wife and best friend Carina. Here she is next to my #1 hero in outboard racing.
Jimbo was the racer who got my attention as a young boy when he was racing overseas in Paris & Berlin 6 hours 1969/70.
50 years later Jimbo made up his mind and did us all proud and came to the 2021 Racers Reunion in Havasu City despite his difficulties.
We love you Jimbo & Cathy McConnell and thanks for a great weekend.

I worked under DS for years in Merc Service, as a technical writer and later an an OEM Field Engineeer. Great times!
I met Jimbo once at a race in Lakeland Florida. We had a brief conversation and unlike some other "factory" drivers he treated me as just another race driver.
Off Topic but this is a great marina.
