The Hustler - Pabst Blue Mule was originally a 24' Jones conventional built by Jim Miller in 1966 as Miller's Hustler. First race was Tonawanda Gran Prix (second time ever in the water) it beat Chip Winder & Iroquois Chief. The hydro was sold to John Prevost (Shazam). The next owner was Art Raybe who campaigned it as Milford Miss and Division I as the Hustler. The hydro ran with a fuel injected 427 Chevy. Bob Newman & one of the Kropfieild brothers also drove the boat. Tony Stadler then bought it & campaigned it as Pabst Blue Mule H-83.
