I haven't started to take it apart yet as I am still working on my current project. Lets just say there definitely is no transom number and no id plate or other visible markings anywhere in the cockpit area. It does have shadows in the gel coat of Ohio Registration numbers on it and a 1974 and a1975 ohio sticker still on it.

If I am not mistaken, a local boat shop splashed this hull, [ Dutchman ] Last I heard he still has the molds and builds them as you would like, light, heavy, whatever. I also have been in one with a black V-6 , wow somewhat scary, but with this long time owner, I still felt safe. Had plenty of rides in a Magnum Missile with a inline Twister 1 and a speedmaster, seemed like the perfect match! Loved those early tunnels!!!!!

Johnny was somehow involved with Bob and BillieSue Boalick on that boat. They all drove the boat and I think BillieSue blew it over at the stadium. She survived the accident ok but shortly afterward died of pancreatitis.
