But, it's the only photo I've ever seen of what your asking for. After being warehoused for a few years, after it's Miss Seattle days were over, Bob Gilliam, in collaboration with Ken Murphy of Sacramento, CA, obtain the hull. All they did with the old paint job was to paint over the Miss Seattle name on the sides. But, if you look closely, you can see the Fascination I marking on the tail. After failing to qualify her for that 1965 Gold Cup, with Bob Miller driving, Gilliam ended his association with the craft. Murphy then had the Fascination name removed, and a completely new red & white color scheme was applied, retaining the name Barryessa Belle. It entered 3 more events later that year with very little success. The other "drawing" is from the set of decals that come with a Slo-Mo-Shun V model I have.</p>

<p>I have a picture of Fascination, U-88 and Fascination 1, U-771, in the 54th Gold Cup program. The pic of Fascination U-88 is in color but Fascination 1, U-771 is not. In the program nothing is mentioned about Fascination 1 being the former SloMo V, however. The Fascination hull is definitely of a later design. Let me know if this helps you at all. <a href="mailto:rodcon@harbornet.com">rodcon@harbornet.com</a></p>
