| Photo from early Lake Whatcom Classic. Pete Wells was the organizer and didn't race. David Sherrer took the photo. He said he was standing on a step ladder on a boat (also didn't race). Didn't say what kind of boat. Nobody around here knew what a surfski or an outrigger boat was. There were some names thrown around, "Bowers", "Anderson Brothers", "Williams", This race was down to the old resort and back - 18 miles. Some rough water for pro-boats. I've raced some of the guys mentioned. Them good boys paddle rough. | Photo from early Lake Whatcom Classic. Pete Wells was the organizer and didn't race. David Sherrer took the photo.
