Can anyone comment on the names and maybe the Xcaliber boat mentioned... how many actual 14ft Xcalibers have people ever seen in person?

The last one I saw was raced in 1990, 91 and 92 by father and son team Bill and Jason Sproule out of Tweed Ontario. Duanne Wight son of Murray Wight who owned White Water Marine in Peterborough. |

Actually I think Matt Riddy also had one. The #96 boat that was pulled fro the bottom of the lake. Hydroid would know for sure. |

Riddy's boat pulled from SML was a Delta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMSFKv6rmLA Just watched video again, great story/recovery. Reflecting, Randy Wyatt, Rusty's father, pictured in the water with boat at shore, CDN & US racing legend just passed away in the new year. Also, in the short 1996 Dunnville video, just prior to Riddy breaking something #52 is mentioned by Brian Agar, announcer. That was Robbie Gordon, fierce FE racer, another SML'er, now his son is racing T with OPBRA. |
