Remund wins wind delayed Seattle hydroplane regatta
Onondaga Lake wind delays nearly canceled the Budweiser Unlimited Hydroplane Regatta but Mickey Remund aboard the Squire Shop Union Bay U-2 won the championship with an average 114.796 mph on the five lap course. He defeated Ron Snyder in American Speedy Printing U4 as Reynolds on Miss Tosti Asti U-10 faced engine and ground idle troubles. Reynolds later aimed for 1985 and noted other boats like Miss Budweiser faced damage. Remund’s team, led by owner Bob Steil, reshaped with Remund returning after a retirement to drive the former Atlas Van Lines hull.
