That's pretty cool Scott. A Martin outboard, nice. Is that you driving?

I always liked how large boats had smaller engines on them like that, of course because that's mainly what was available. You would see 25-30 foot boats with with twin 25-horsepower engines. I thought that was very cool.

Greg your right about small on big. There was a local guy here when i was a kid and he had some type of cruiser with twin Homelight four strokes. They were probly around 35hp but i thought they were so cool. He also had a set of "walk on water shoes". They looked like small plastic pontoons about four foot long with foot harness`s. On the bottom were these directional flap like things that would grab water only one way for motivation. It`s been many years sence i thought about that.
