Dad and Grandpa in the Ventnor hydroplane

When my father was a boy, he and my gandfather would zip around Owasco Lake in a Ventnor 7 liter class hydroplane. The engine they used wasn't 7 liter but was a smaller 333 cubic inch Cadillac engine. I am told it made quite a noise as it flashed by but the speed the Ventnor attained is not exactly known but is somewhere around 100mph!

I believe this hydroplane still exists in a private collection. I'd like to talk to you about it if possible. I have about forty pictures of the unrestored boat. I build 1/4 scale Ventnor hydroplanes. How do I contact you?
