1967 Bahamas 500 Sports Illustrated Article

[Capt Terry]

Gee, thanks I had not heard Mark Hauptner's name in years. In 1976 I ordered my 20' SeaCraft Seafari from Brown & Hauptner. I was 30 years old and did most of my communicating with Mark, probably because he was younger and friendlier than Frank, who seemed to have an attitude.
In 1985, after they had separated and Frank was in Riviera Beach I bought a new Merc from him. He treated me right and we became friendlier. It was only about a year ago when Carla told me that Frank had been Carl's race mechanic. The first time I had heard that I believe. Thanks for the memory. Still enjoying the boat BTW!
