Wood cat made the non-stop run from San Francisco to Los Angeles in 1957.
At the far right is Ray Leger and standing at the bow of the boat is my
grandfather Tony Leger.

Ben Jones sent me this photo and clippings about the 2000 mile river journey
of  Bruce McClaren and Stu Herrington in their Power Cat 16c .  They started
out from the Golden Triangle of Pittsburg, on the Ohio River on June 27 and
made their way up the Ohio, Missisppi and Illinois rivers to Lake Michigan to
arrive at their destination of Washington Island, Wisconsin 16 days
latter on the 12th of July, 1961.. Sounds like quite an adventure !!
