And at 1:02 you can see me test the first Urethane Force Fin in Bev Morgans home pool.Dick Anderson Effect – Force Fin Just watched this video, after many years not checking it out..really not bad for the time made.

I found this black and white photo taken on the Olympic 100 or so feet. 1969 San Pedro. This was the fishing net that I got caught in taking pictures. Jim Pennington uphooked my J -value. After that situation, I made the " Buddy Miror ". Now I could be able to look over my shoulders and take a look. Here my Father Gordon B. Evans is testing.

The first workshop for Force Fin. 1974. Outside of our 28 Anacpa Street, Santa Barbara office. Noticed the 55 gallon drum of ACE..which stood for acetone. Get for cleaning up resign and starting the fire pit in the back yard. Did we have some parties. At the time Jimmy Gray showed up after work 5:00 pm. Always had a cold six pack of Bud for him. Jim was building Diving helmets for Kirby Morgan. Sometimes in the summer months we worked late into the night. This Force Fin model was the one that moved us forward. Took to Cozumel, Mexico for testing.
