going to put a "dialed in at lake maurepas" decal on my boat

Matt,
How was this almost forgotten....!! This is like the Blues Brothers putting the band back together. I did read the article on the new smaller HP product offering and caught that snip it of info in it.. Great to see the bigger write up. I did a search and found the following... It will be interesting on how it plays out.

Any changes to the scope of work complete in Panama?

Bad a$$. Hope to go by there and see something going on

And I was asking myself the same question when I wrote the column on Monday for Tuesday go-live. Blame it on information overload. Even with two guys running flat out, there's a lot to cover—and a lot to get done—at the Miami Boat Show.

Panama? Panama City? You might be talking above my pay grade.

Is it going to available for "PERFORMANCE TESTING" as it was before or is it more for Mercury's Private Use?

MY Apache is a lake x boat and it is amazing how many people ask about the dialed in sticker and have no idea what lake x once was. Pretty cool glad to see it coming back!

Got to test our F2 Formula race boat there with the guys from Formula factory for 3 days what a cool place,a lot of history there!

guess I should clean out my truck more often, there are still a couple of new "rigged at Lake X" stickers in the center console. didnt realize that stuff had been in there that long.

I remember always reading about Mercury Racing, Lake X, where testing and dialing in of boats, new engines and new products were tested and Lake X was Top Secret. Glad to hear that they are reopening.
