  3. the boat in picture # 3 is PHILNORM was owned by Norm BARRELL a Y block powered everingham, it is next to NICKO also a everingham the same as Philnorm but converted to a skiff it was powered by a flathead Dodge 6. That photo was taken at Deepwater. Philnorm is next to Saturn in picture #1 the photo taken at Cabarita, the boats are moored to a floating dock which they used to bring in for the bigger championship meets to accomadate all the boats. The boat next to babe is Michael R Trevor.
