I found OSO in 2002 shortly after I bought my 1988 Fountain 8.8mtr on Lake Lanier, Georgia. I was bartending at the time and that is how it got its name and how I got my screen name. The yellow, purple and orange are covering up the typical tacky checkered graphics.

I also found OSO in 2002. I bought my Scarab Panther with my severance check when I lost my job (2002). I painted it all white in 2005 and have updated over the years. Still have it and probably sell next summer.

When I joined OSO in Oct 2000, I just sold my first boat, a 1992 Chris Craft 208. I was shopping for a perf. boat, that's probably how I stumbled across OSO. I was looking hard at Checkmates, Baja, Sonic, and Velocity, but ended up with a 24 Superboat.
