The model:  Dale decided he wanted to have the modern Miss Seattle to go with his historic 56 Miss Seattle he's run in the club since the beginning. He stripped down his Graham Trucking and gave her this cool paint job. His wife Jessica helped him with the vinyl cutting and the boat turned out looking great. It performs well too. He debuted the boat at the 2024 Atomic Cup. We hope to see him out with it much more in the future. Dale's always fun to be around and it's fun to see his creations on the water.

The real boat:  Owner, Billy Schumacher painted up his hydroplane in tribute of the 1956 Miss Seattle race team. It only ran this way for a very short time before they began running regular sponsorship colors and logos on the boat. The boat ran primarily as Miss Beacon Plumbing under this paint scheme.
