Dear Matt & Jason with team.

from our family to Yours, Happy Thanksgiving. We are grateful for your unbelievable contribution to the performance boating enthusiasts. Yesterday the boys in our extended family went to watch the movie Napoleon. Expectations were pretty high. We all walked out of the theatre with disappointed looks on our faces. When we got back to the house and had settled in, I asked; "how many saw the Speedonthewater film 'Creating The World's Fastest V-Bottom' yet? Four out of seven hands in the air. Lets all watch it, I said. The four in the know were already priming the three loudly. My brother hit play and nobody said a word by the time our local hero, and the fave fellow that serviced some of our boats, voice rumbled through the speakers, Bob Teague. 26 minutes and 31 seconds later everybodies faces were lit up and the rest of the evening was all about boating. My 20 year old nephew got the smallest 24 degree v-bottom in the family, 13 feet, and he's got 60 Mercury Racing horsepower. I wonder what he'll run when Speedonthewater turns 30?

Kindest regards, The Lindroth Family.

Thank you sir. I am an emotional guy and I am close to tears. Thank you.
