Thanks Lars! What a great video. Where did you dig that up? Sure takes me back. I was at that Cedar Point race. My Dad used to race, quiet successfully actually in the smaller boats class..."Wolverine". 28' Magnum and then a 28' Mirage. His buddies' family recently restored the Mirage back to original condition and have fun with it a classics gatherings...photo attached.
I love those nostalgic videos...keep 'em coming please!
Thanks! A fun video to watch.

Hello Scott & Bill. Glad You guys liked the video. It was a lucky find since it was a private upload on YouTube by a friend of legendary throttle man Errol Lanier. I really like Errol's cats he builds under his and son's brand Lanier Custom Boats and it was linked on their Facebook page. Preston Henn owned a bunch of adult movie theatres and basically raced a new Bertram 38 every year throughout the mid to late 70's. They ran #9 Streaker seen here in the 1976 season. Since Your Father was racing the Mirage 9 Meter I bet You've seen this upload by the Cortes family Scott
