Magnolia Boat Mfg. Co.

A 16' Magnolia catamaran powered by twin 70 HP Mercury motors placed first in the 1959 St. Louis - New Orleans stock outboard boat marathon race on the Mississippi River. The boat was driven by Carlton Johnson and Roy B. Fulton of Greenville, MS (Sept. 25, 1959, The Deseret News, Mercury advertisement). Most notably, these fellows beat the winner of the last three of these races, Byron Pool. The other top five placing boats included two Jav Cats, Crownline, and Glass Magic. A Power Cat took sixth. Some insight into this race is provide by Danny Leger, son of Ray Leger: http://www.powercatboat.com/race/story.html
