    Duff started with a 20ft Rayson flat decades ago and the continuous tweeking thru the years have led to the current bottom.
    I ran against Duff and his dad Del in his first race in 1970 Vallefield, Que. They were running Rayson Craft then in SS class. He is not only a great driver but a standup person, a good friend a credit to boat racing.
