The most interesting tunnel boat racer ever.

Cees van der Velden in Boretto, Italy 1975.
Boat #139 is Cees in his “Cessenari” Johnson V6 2 liter crashing out in the European Championship race.
Cees was in my opinion the most interesting tunnel boat racer ever. You never know what was going to happen when he was racing.
Little bit of an underdog to Renato Molinari and Billy Seebold but a fighter like no one else.
Thanks for pictures and info Roberto Bigi – Marasi Giuliano

More Cees van der Velden.
This is from Drammen GP, Norway 1980. I think Cees is talking to the Champion Spark Plug representative from Belgium. I do not remember his name.
Thanks Roberto Bigi for excellent pictures.
