Jimmy King brought the U-3 Hoss Mortgage Investors Too into the dock after the boat's manifold pressure dropped quickly after a test run.
A reporter looked at team owner Ed Cooper, put his arms out wide and shrugged. Cooper responded "That's exactly it."
"Something quit," he said. "this thing is like a quiz."
Cooper said computer readouts on board said something is wrong. But the team can't find the problem. Still, Cooper didn't seem quite so concerned, as he was eating ice cream in the cockpit.

D.B. COOPER: WSU professor continues research
PULLMAN Forty years ago, a man in a dark business suit and tie committed one of the biggest whodunits in U.S. history. D.B. Cooper skyjacked a jetliner and bailed out at 10,000 feet between Seattle and Portland with a parachute and $200,000 in ransom money strapped to his waist.
He was never seen again. Was it the perfect crime or a reckless plunge into the great hereafter?
In trying to solve the nation’s only unsolved skyjacking, the FBI has examined 1,000 suspects, according to the agency’s website. A Washington State University professor who has researched the skyjacking believes one name should stand out among them:
Kenny Christiansen.
