That old Formula 233 ran just like it was 1963 all over again. I'm sure Don was watching from somewhere to make sure I didn't abuse his first raceboat fromone of his own companies.

He had three race boats named "The Cigarette". This one, a 27 foot Magnum and the final 32 Cary that became so famous.
