1970,................I'm thinking this is Lake Mead, the last year that we raced. 18 ft. Wickens Whirlwind, 427 high riser ford, balsom wood checkered bottom. Scary fast in it's day :thumbsup

It looks like Havasu Landing looking across to Havasu City which had no development in 1970.
Was the boat no. 5?
