Just back from the Worlds in Key West, made a stop at Thunder Boat Road, what a change in the last 3 to 4 years. Were Fort Apache was its now a school and condos , only Magnum and the Formula dealer are still there. Can't be long before they are all out of there. Then we went by the other shops on US 1, there were many old molds in a dumpster broke up. Magnum was there at one time also as well as Pantera and TNT Marine. The guards ran us out before we could do some dumpster diving and picture taking . They were getting ready to knock these shops down. I guess Powerboat History is not Historic ?????
