Very saddened by this news. I purchased my 382 from him and over the years, we had many conversations on the phone.

Great guy, and may "MagicFloat" Rest In Peace.

I bought my 382 from him without ever meeting him but, talked with him plenty of times. Strange coincidence 1 week later I noticed a guy standing in front of me with an Alabama jacket on and said I just bought a boat from a guy who is from Alabama. The guy siad whats his name ? I said Robert Nelems, he said I am his brother !! He bought property in our plantation and built a home.

Cancer sucks hit me at 42 and it was brutal hopefully they find a cure someday soon Rip Magic Float !

Robert was a great contributor to OSO and the Formula section he will be missed.
