The model:  Mike debuted this new boat after originally building it as the 82 Oh Boy! Oberto. Because another member had that registration, Mike made a quick repaint on the decks, added a stabelizer wing to the back and converted it to the 84 boat. Mike's first year in the club was 2021. He first debuted this boat at the Muncey Cup and scored points with it in three races.

The real boat:  This boat also ran under several other names in the 1980s, including Executone, American Speedy Printing, Miss Rock, Miss Houston and Pocketsavers Plus.
