Boat Statistics
This boat was originally the second 66 Bardahl built by Pete Schille. Mike had also built and raced a model of this same boat when he joined Ct back in 94 and it's obviously one of his favorates. When this boat came up for sale in 2010, Mike couldn't resist and decided to get it, refurbish it and once again run a Cabover Bardahl in division 1. The real boat: The boat debuted in 1966 with promise, but had gearbox issues in its first race. In it's second race, it was destroyed in Washington DC on the day that is often referred to as "Black Sunday", when driver Ron Musson became the first of three drivers to die on the Potomac River.
