The model:  Another boat from Henry Marvin of ERCU fame, bought from John Williams as a set for Team Madison.  Only raced a few times in 2010 in ERCU.  It was Ron Forister's primary hull for 2011.  Ron sold the boat to another club member, who sold it to Brandon Sano, who ran it as a new member of CT in 2019. The boat is a solid, steady boat and has served many drivers well. Brandon finished 10th in season points and earned Rookie of the Year honors.

The real boat:  Originally built with piston power in late 80's, became turbine powered in 90's under many names.  It ran as Frosted Flakes, Dewalt, Holset miss Madison, Oh boy oberto in 2000's.  Became a static display after the new Oberto hull was built in 2007.  Mike Hanson kept the boat competitive for many years.  In 2011 it was purchased from the City of Madison by Scott Carson and will campaign as the U-22 team's new boat in the upcoming season.
