Went to high school with his daughter. Never saw that boat rigged like that. Was that picture taken before or after he got the boat back from the Greeks? I only recall seeing Tin Fish rigged with 2 inline 6s.

That is the guy who won the single engine class at the 66 9 hour. I think he might have been an Evinrude dealer in West Palm Beach.

Evinrude

15% better fuel economy means more time on the water and more fish in the boat. What did you fill your fish box with today?

Thanks Carl McBride‎

Back in the day circa 1989 Lake Simcoe, certainly one of the hardest accelerating 25 talons I had ever run. Second Effort 4.0l , dual plug heads, with custom rods, pistons and a liberal internal massage among other balance improvements. 14.5x34p HOSS Hyperdrive Offshore props and on the rev limiter at 8200 rpm of a short firing pin away from transforming into large grenades....lol

Her name was "Indigestion"
