I'm 57 and it seems crazy to have been on OSO for 25 years.
My head thinks I'm still 32 or even 40 a lot of the time and then the next morning my body reminds me that I'm not

Happy Birthday!!

56 here. Fortunately I can do more than most 25 year olds. Maybe that's not saying much now? Hopefully be retired in a couple of years and really start enjoying myself?

Well...today I am 76. Back from a good work out at the gym. As the oldest, so far, my advise is...keep moving and keep running fast, loud boats!

Remember, growing old is unavoidable, growing up is optional.

Good job. We still need something to make noise at Boyne Thunder. The parade lap is a little wimpy sounding. I gave in and went to outboards. I have to admit I enjoy working on them standing up, along with the fuel economy. I really miss the old Baja. You would warn someone on the dock you were starting up, then they would jump anyway once it fired up.
