    Remember these?

    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

    I remember them running good but probably too far left for customer acceptance and didn’t see many.

    I think the built a bigger one too.
    25’ IO Maybe??
    Maybe not past prototype stage but seems it surfaces every several yrs.

    Funny, I was just thinking about that old video out.
    Absolutely love.
    Bet I’ve watched it 30 times.

    Some freagin impressive #s even for today.

    The Starcraft we’re strolling!
    Forgot they were in that video.
    98 for the OB and 107 for the IO!
    And that IO was hangin!

    And, 124 in the STV and 115 in the 25’ Talon.

    Thx for bringing that video back up.
    Great w/my first cup of coffee ��
