    Hi Parker...If I am not mistaken, the Sasquatch is a 22 foot hull. There are a fair amount of these ET hulls out West. They make great river runners.

    Your Dad is correct. These boats will run in excess of 130. If memory serves me correctly, the late Mitch Lembke ran the Speed Marine's ET-79 "Silverwing" through the kilo at 138.

    The boat was very competitive and Mitch was an incredible driver. I know that they won at Parker and other races as well.

    Hey Parker...I don't know if they would sell it or what they would want for it if they did. But, if you are interested, I would be glad to contact their corporate office in Pennsylvania and ask the question.

    I sure would love to take a spin in that one on Lake Tarpon or Lake Seminole. She is a piece of history and needs to be set free. "Free Willy" was a success, so how about "Free Sasquatch" ???

    Saving "Sasquatch"

    Here are some more pictures of the ET-80 as it hangs from the ceiling of the Quaker Steak & Lube resuraunt located at 10400 49th Street (At US 19) Clearwater, Fl. In addition there is a cycle room with vintage Harley's and Indian's hanging from the ceiling. Then there is a race car room with a Dale Earnhardt #8 hanging above the bar. In the same room is a Bobby Rahal Indy car hanging from the wall. In yet another room is a vintage totally restored 1958 Corvette on a hydraulic lift. If any of you are going to be in this area, you owe it to yourself to stop by. Oh, yeah, the food is awesome, too. All the credit goes to Parker Rabe for this rare find.

    Parker...Christmas may come early this year. I contacted the owners and they would consider selling the boat. They drilled "I" bolts into the transom to hang it, but that has no effect on the boat other than cosmetic. If you have any interest in buying it, I can put you in contact with the person that can make it happen.
