J Smith's many PUTT-PUTT'S.

Does anybody know where Wolverine is today??

Wolverine became the Bud Light than A J Robert's, then ????????

The 30 Velocity / Putt Putt reminded me of B-Fast, which ran out of the great lakes mid to late 90's. Ralph & Tom usually managed to keep this fast, but unpredictable beast in a straight line. But every once in while, she'd show her mean streak by spitting out one or more of the crew. Louie "the buoy" was navigator & chief rag waver at the turns & S / F. He also held the distinction of getting tossed with alarming regularity. Key West ~'95....they're in a huge pack of B boats coming into the first outside turn in typical KW nastiness. As the spray settles and the scrum is sorted out, the turn buoy is destroyed and Louie has once again gone swimming. Although ok, bad news is the slower B boats and an even larger fleet of A boats are now turning on the only orange thing in the water...Louie's head! And the Detroit legend of "Louie the Buoy" was born.

As the Velocity boys say....pads, steps, beaks, bustles, bull!

thats a scary but funny story........

I found out that when last raced as A J Mr Robert's on lake Michigan they busted the bottom out, and may be sitting in a field somewhere.

Thanks H20, Do you happen to remember a Magnum? out of Emerald City called LIL' ABNER??

No,, but I think there was 29'ss Mirage called Lil' Abner.

Cap'n Kev should have the skinny on Li'l Abner, will update soon....

Just to keep Magnum Mark (Michigan edition) on his game, how about some scuttlebutt re this ol' St. Clair girl........
