    OMC story

    Not sure If this was posted before...

    My first boat was a 60's OMC IO tri hull, never had another IO, all outboards since.

    OMC, Evinrude and Johnson Boats (omc-boats.org)

    The hull designs were perhaps more interesting than good.

    I'm embarrassed to say one of those boats full of nasty foam and the worst outdrive known to man was my first boat,

    I guess that is why I've always had outboards since

    I worked at a marina on Lake Martin in the early 70's and that lake had a lot of the Johnson/Evinrude boats. I was more interested in the girls in the boats than the boats themselves!
