Hi Ben,

I may be mistaken, but I think the boat Jim Kropfeld drove was the first Danash, which was destroyed when Jean Theoret's brother died. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

One way or the other, it would be an excellent addition to the fleet.

Bonjour Jim,
You`re right.The boat that is for sale is the Danash II.The first one was destroyed in a deadly accident.
The year after the accident,Gerald Theoret (Jean`s father) decided to order another boat from Staudacher.He ordered the same boat and called her Miss Danash II.She had the same paint scheme with a yellow lines here and there it.
He also changed the number from GP-855 to GP-929.
Over the years,the Theoret changed a couple of thing on the boat.When Alain Blanchet bought it,he had to put a reinforced cockpit for safety rules.
Besides the cockpit/cowling,the boat kept its main shapes.

Who was killed and what year and race did it happen?

I believe it was Pierre Theoret, '79 or '80 at St-Gabriel-de-Brandon, Quebec.

Pierre was Jean Theoret`s brother anf Robert Theoret nephew.It was a sad day,Pierre was a rookie driver and a fast driver.After his accident,the GP Ass decided to put on a rules that you had to get experience in Smaller classes and get some restriction before being able to run in the GP.
