The model:  Ron bought this boat already built in 2023 and has set it up to run very fast. It's one of three vintage Miss Madisons in his fleet. He started the 2023 season with this boat as his primary and added the 66 Madison at the second race. The two boats make a very productive team. They finished 5th and 6th in 2023 and look to up their game in 2024. Based on what we've seen so far this season, the 66 has established itself as the primary boat in 2024.

The real boat: This boat was the former Nitrogen. Owner Sam DuPont donated the hull to the City of Madison, Indiana. The name was changed to Miss Madison. Graham Heath became the crew chief of an all volunteer crew. Marion Cooper signed on as the driver.
