I miss the days of rafting off in front of Coral Gables. For what my memory can remember, those were good times.

With the old yellow 27 Magnum sport sitting there covered with grass.

I didn't have too much of a problem, but that's cuz my boat is way shorter than yours.

Glad to hear your going to be back in the water soon, Mark! - with your, cough, warsh tub... That's quite a hiatus you've been on... are your new "tornady's" being derived from your previous engines, or did you sell those? Fuel injection?

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this machine!

Tib,...yeah, at least one pair a dem "toronadies" is ma ol 565cid engines wit da standard height or "short deck" blowcks, but da ones dat Dave W is a buildin fur me nayow is da "tall deck" version and will have a little mar kick to dem but don't be a tellin nobowdy....and ma "galvarlized warsh tub" is more like a resin bucket dat seems ta rowsemble some sort of puddle jumper and float somehow I sarpose---probably looks sumtin like dis, but mines is not quite as fancy though....


My 565cid engines are still at Dave's shop and are for sale if anybody is interested.

Well, one thing is for sure, your "tornadies" and "warsh tub resin bucket" will no doubt run circles around my "shrimpin baaoat".

By the way,thanks for attaching a picture/video of it your boat looks pretty good skipping on the water, but you may want to give the little yellow guy driving an air-ride seat, he seems to have hit a resonant frequency bouncing around like that.
