This boat began its racing career as the backup 1980 Miss Budweiser. Originally owned by John Montgomery, Mick bought the hull in 1999 as his first r/c hydro, and raced it for four years. The hull has been durable and dependable throughout its life, providing Mick with a Top-25 points finish and Rookie of the Year honors in R/C Unlimiteds. After the 2002 season, the boat underwent extensive repairs and received a new paint job by

’s Geof Amos before returning to the circuit in 2004 as the 1978 version of Bernie Little’s beer boat. |
