The model:  Gene bought a model of the Country Boy and quickly converted it into another member of his growing Red Man team of boats.  Gene did a great job on the paint conversion and adds this as his sister ship to the 73 Red Man he will run in division 1.  He also runs the 74 Red Man as another division 2 boat.

The real boat:  This boat was one of two Red Man boats run in 73. Both were owned and driven at some point by Jim McCormick.  George Henley drove the boat in Tri-Cities and Seattle in 73.
