Jackie: Will we see you at OFF?

[STEVERINO]

Wrong again Steve-----there were three engines delivered to Pat Frewer at South Western Marine. The first one was for me-------Ridgell came over from Italy and collected number two-------Leo took one to Holland for Cees.

Jackie relax put your feet up for a few minutes and see if you can remember this it was a long time ago I can remember Bill Shakespeare having a twister 1 engine for the 1970 Chasewater 500mile race but he also had a Johnson engine too and entered 2 boats`Drivers (Bill Shakepeare /Bernard Michell)`1 outfit and( Steve Pinson/Peter Thorney work)the other` told PORKY`S to both OMC and MERCURY said he wanted to see which went the best?.Bernard Michell flew the Johnson powered outfit and the Twister 1 engine didnt last.After the race Mercury removed their engine and gave it to our friend Freddi Miles.You Jackie should remember this race you and Rossi won it in a orange or maybe red Molinari?

Would love to be there Rich, but when we did the Canada/USA trip in June, we decided to give the OFF a miss this year.We have to come over in November for my grand daughter Louise's wedding, so to come over in October as well, would have been just a tad much. [it's Jilly you know, getting on a bit and hasn't got the stamina she used to have]!!!!!!!!

Since Shakey won the Paris race and Mr. K. Himself presented him with the first black widow as a gift, All the Mercury secret sh-t made it's way through the side door of SWMF direct to Tewkesbury.
Shakey started to play both ends against the middle when Bob Glenn sweet talked him into running the Jonrood-------Wasn't long before he didn't know his arse from his elbow------or whether he wanted a crap or a haircut. Something had to give----.Mercury took away his toy.
I had won most of the nationals and a couple of internationals. Combination of Mercury. Hi--perf backing and a brand new 17 ft. Molinari Sprint----Don Ross as co-driver, meant that we were damn near untouchable.
The Chasewater 500 was in place of the 24 hour race, the race was in the bag after the first 10 laps------- OMC had no answer to the silo and it ran like clockwork all the way home.

Rossi was given the last hours drive ,, GG was hopping up and down wanting to put Molinari in for the last hour------- I wasn't about to allow that to happen.
That was when GG decided he was going to pair Renato and me together for the 1970 Paris race that we won but never did-----------'nuff said--------it's finished.

VERY Sorry to hear that........ As Steve S. is fond of saying the days are getting shorter and the time we have to get together and relive the glory days is more than precious.


You will be missed...... not by me of course....but certainly somebody will notice your absence.

Thanks a lot Rich, knew damn well you wouldn't miss me at all-----i'll accept you would "notice my absence" !!!!!! It's one of the few times i really enjoy seeing all the friends i made over the years and reminding myself what a great life this is-------meeting the legends that were powerboating itself in the 60's/70's.
Never would have met Stavros and "The Hauser" ---Johnny Bakos------"VELOX"---T2X and all the magic names Pruett used to wax lyrical on. None the less----a good time will be had by all------Just wish Stickle could persuade Welch [Willabee to most of you] to haul his sorry arse out of downtown Ohio [wherever the hell that is] and shoot the breeze with all of you for a couple of days. Y'know he's not a bad old fart at the end of the day-------he just gets a tad mixed up nowadays-----but he is a mine of Merc. history-------JUST THE FACTS MAAM---JUST THE FACTS !!!!!!! What was the name of that damn detective ????????Jack ???????????something or other. Help me out here Willa.
