1973/1974
I have found some old pictures of one of my old friends from 1973/1974 called the flying greengrocer learning how to drive a racing boat the hardway.He was called Jeff Edwards he was from Liverpool and born around the same time as the beatles.I was teamed up with Jeff as guest driver for the privately owned racing team for all the marathon races.This team had a brand new 17ft Johnson powered raceboat in 1973 and its first race was at the 1973 Paris 6hr international event which was a rough old race.I had the first drive fuel load would last nearly 2hrs before a driver change the outfit drove ok for the 1st hour until the fuel load got lighter after that this boat seamed to float occasionally and got steadily worse as the fuel load got less.I decided the time was ready for a pit stop and came in to refuel told Jeff how the boat drove and to try and keep it on the water.So off he went and I enjoyed watching this race with around 80 boats running from all around the world and suddenly no Jeff the boat was no longer running i looked at my watch he had been driving for just over 1 hr and his race was over.The wreck was towed in and he was in a Paris hospital for the next week with kidney damage.The boat was repaired for the 1974 seasons racing and off Jeff went again i believe he flew this same outfit 2 more times and i have found some pictures of this taking place at Fairford in the UK.In one of the shots he has Bob Spalding driving a white JPS Molinari on the inside and Peter Thorneywork on the outside driving a Embassy Cougar.
