Default recollections

The boats pictured above were, as I recall, Hydrodynes. They were a derivative of a hull designed by Ab Crosby. Some of you may remember Crosby boats in the 60's. Goodhue Boat Yard in Glendale sponsored a couple of these, a twin engine and a single engine Merc. Another sponsors, if I recall correctly, was Channel Marine, racing a Century Coronado.
A couple of years ago, the Winnipesaukee Museum did a presentation on water ski racing . If they did a video about it, there wold be a lot of info there from drivers and skiers. (I drove, but my boat never won)
