It will not end. Ever.
On the other hand I am very happy with my Honda 90.
It's all about the quiet and enjoying life.
Some people just don't get it, eh? |

I AGREE.
HAVING SAID THAT, I CAN SEE FUTURE YACHT TYPE VESSELS COMMANDING LARGE, PERHAPS 454'S (7.4) OR EVEN 496'S (8.1) OUTBOARDS RATHER THAN THE TYPICAL INBOARDS. SO MANY ADVANTAGES OUTBOARDS HAVE OVER INBOARDS.
BUT, IF I COULD MOUNT THESE PUPPIES TO MY LITTLE MISTY SEAS, MAN, WHAT A RUSH THAT WOULD BE!
PAT
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
ME AND THE LITTLE MRS ARE HEADING SOUTH TO CUMBERLAND THIS PM. WILL BE DROWNING WORMS THIS TIME TOMORROW. |

When we were in the San Juans last week, we were "visited" by the U.S. Customs/Homeland Security crew in their 40 foot patrol boat with FOUR 250 HP Mercury Verado Supercharged Engines.
After a pleasant interrogation on who we were and what was olur business, we asked their Captain if he wanted to drag race our 50 ft sailboat (which peaks out at 4 knots under power (85 hp Perkins diesel), and about 7-8 under max sail).
He declined with a laugh, so I guess we won that one!
Joe.
LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THIS WITH FOUR 250 HP OUTBOARDS INSTEAD OF THE I/O!

I'll race you Joe!
Right now my Nor'Sea 27 sailboat is on the hard for hurricane season. When I splash her I'll be more than happy to race.
Of course I want a 2 day head start, and when you pass by you have to throw me a beer.
