Jo,
No problem. I just wanted to have a topic about outboard speed as most OSO members run inboard power. Have a great weekend.

Thanks John,

My father and Dick grew up together and I grew up with and am still good friends with Dick's daughter. Sad thing about George is that he NEVER knew that he set the record after the first pass.
