I heard they only ran those things a couple of times because they were so dangerous.

I wonder why De Silva chose to offer a wing design so different from the one that was so successful with the OMC motors? I also wonder why those first De Silva wing boats were not raced more than they were?

In my opinion the De Silva runabouts were the best looking flat bottoms ever. Always wanted to drive one. It seems my list of boats I wanted to drive greatly exceeds my list of boats I actually got to drive. That is a subject for another thread.

When I was 15 I got a Holt Craft BU with a really nice 20H on it. My best friend's dad bought him a DeSilva FU with a 4-60 alky motor on it. Boat was beautiful. We never got the 4-60 running but it sure looked good. The guy I worked for at Dade Marine gave him a KG-9 for it. We had a blast with those boats. He had a car but only a learners permit, that didn't stop us from driving anywhere we wanted towing one boat on top of the other.
The great old days.
