I have a bunch of old old magazines from the late 1940's and early 50's. Not much outboard stuff but still cool.
Thanks!

I scan em, and clean em up in Photoshop. Some are so good, they don't need anything.

Here is a few Hydrostream things I have floating around on my computer... I used to have a bunch of old hydrostream catalogs but for the life of me I cant find em. Last time I seen em was 3 moves ago.

The red and white vulture on the bottom there was for sale in MN here not to long ago. I dont know if the guy still has it or where it ended up though. I wish I still had his number but I dont.

I think if you look real close you can see the drivers head in the AE21.

Hey Pete, Thanks for posting this. Brings back memories. The GOLDish color boat toward the top looks like the color of Fred's BOOGER boat. (Ventura1).

one of my favorite magazines was from the 50's with an article about Cypress Gardens and Merc KG's on small runabouts jumping a`la James bond! of course,like everything else,it's long gone! Thanks for sharing,Pete,amazing,when you think it's been 40 plus years !!!

Pete,you ARE the MAN!! notice the apricot!!

Pete, Are you telling me that Fred has the only snot colored boat Hydrtostream made? You would think people would have been flocking to that color!!! I like the Cyprus Gardens pix too. I went there many times as a kid.

I don't think Booger Yellow was a high demand color
