Research done in the Sept. 1925 and Nov. 1926 issues of “Motor Boating” Magazine show pictures of this famous 38 foot Hydroplane racing boat. Yankee Doodle was designed by John L. Hacker, owned by H. Alex Johnson and was powered with 3,000 h. p.! She could go 100 miles per hour!! The “Motor Boating” Magazine articles were about the Yankee Doodle racing in races on Manhasset Bay Long Island Sound in 1925 and at the Corinthian Yacht Club of Washington D. C. In 1926! This photo location is unidentified. The photo is from the Talbot Historical Society’s H. Robins Hollyday Collection.
