"All the Noise"
Written on the back of the
postcard.....
"This is the boat that is all the noise this year. She goes through snow
and everything. The way the Princess [Madison's Emil Fauerbach's boat] beat her
Friday is as follows: Along by the crack the ice was almost clear, the wind
having blown the snow way over the crack. Peterson wasn't wise to this, but
Fauerbach was. I guess the guy on the Yellow Kid must have told him about it. It
was on a tack against the wind and he had to run almost straight into to make
it, but he made it all right and beat Petie....Strictly Menominee designed and Menominee
made."
