The record attempt at the Dalälven, Sweden October 1973.
It is Gert Lowisin himself who has built this hydro boat with a Chrysler 45 Super Sport for the UIM SD class. Yes, Gert did get a few world records on this very cold weekend..
I was also there for a few UIM SE class world records.
Over my 20+ years of boat racing I got to know all the “big wheels” in the business..
I drove for Team Renato Molinari and Cees Van Der Velden.
Owned and purchased boats from Burgess, Clerici, Molinari, Schulze and others.
Billy Seebold is the only one I never did any business with but in my opinion Mr. Bill is probably the greatest of them all.
There is no one friendlier and a better spokesperson for the sport than Mr. Bill.
I did met Mr. Bill in the early seventies over in Europe the first time. We became friends and I love the man..
Many great memories and here is a mix of my own pictures I took of the best ever.
Mr. Bill is in for his toughest fight ever..please think of him..
