The model:  The Deaver camp debuted this hull as the 86 BOAT in 2013 and changed it during the season to the 82 Executone.  It showed up at the Gold Cup in its new colors and performed very well with Alex driving.  This looks to be Alex's new ride for Division 2.  He'll have some fun with it.

The real boat:  This was one of Fred Leland's boats in the 80's.  It raced under several different sponsors including Oberto, KISW Rock and American Speedy Printing.
