Happy Anniversary of your first meeting...!!

The four legged friends define the meaning of "unconditional love." We lost our "flash mob" about three years ago...all four in the same year. Very hard to say good-bye after 15 years together.

‎Evinrude - Johnson outboards. Facts, history, racing and future.


A completely restored Scotti-Craft with an Evinrude Super Strangler V4 1632 cc cross-flow.
My guess is #35 for Barry Woods. He is recovering from some health issues.
Owner Greg Jacobsen at SeaWay Marine.

That is just great video. A tribute to organization and coordination. Amazing that only one of them fell early.

This is a new Scotti-Craft from May 1973 raced by Ceasare Scotti.
