The U-146 was one of those high hopes/low budget boats that struggled to get financing from race to race. It was unveiled in 1982 by Fred Leland and raced as U-55 Oh Boy! Oberto, driven by Scotrt Pierce, at the Columbia Cup, finishing 8th; then leased to Bill Wurster and raced as U08 Executone at San Diego and Houston, placing 6th and 7th. Its best finishes were thre 4ths from 1987 to 1989. THese were the years and names in raced under: 1983, U-40 American Speedy Printing, U-100 Miss Rock/KISW and back to U-40 Miss Houston; 1984, U-40 Oh Boy! Oberto; 1985, U-100 Miss Rock/KISW and Coors Light; 1986 U-100 BOAT; 1987, U-100 Miss Rock/KISW; 1988 U-4 Pocket Savers Plus; 1989 U-146 Heartbreakers, Dollhouse, Easter Seals, ARC Construction, Pietro's Pizza and Miss Marina; 1990 U-99.9 Miss Rock/KISW and U-99.9; 1991 U-99 Miss Rock/KISW; and finally in 1993 as U-00 Miss Tubs
