Fujimo, posts 1414 & 1425 aren't showing the pics, only the comments you wrote. Quite a few pages back this same thing was happening, someone mentioned something about photos being linked to another site/needing permission to view them. Are these two posts I mentioned here photos you scanned & uploaded, or were they copied or saved from another site? Might be the issue with random photos not being visible to us. Or possibly a setting you need to change on your end to allow us access to view them?? I just know this is the most incredible thread I have ever followed on ANY forum on ANY subject, and I don't want to miss any of it. Just saying thank you for sharing it doesn't seem like enough. Regardless, thank you for taking the time & effort to share this journey with us

Looks like they are in about 20 foot of water. I think that shadow is on the ocean floor. Lower units still in the water.

After looking at all this Mercury propaganda both OPC and Offshore , It is obvious that OMC top management spent to much time on the golf course! BRP must be following that tradition......

Me too--in the 60's and 70's---the Offshore races in the 'Bahamas' always crossed the 'FLATS'---the water was only 10' to 12' deep -----and crystal clear---

Gene - The date on that picture got my attention. Ten months after he signed that picture, he was gone. He was way too young...
