Hey Guy's,
It is a rare occurence when you get to do something over again from your past, Will its about ta happen!!!!!!
A friend of mine just sprung a suprize on me, He has restored a hull that I drove in the late 70's and wants me to give it its maiden voyage since rebuild,
The hull is a original plywood tunnel by no other than Angelo Molinari, he has a 140 straight six Merc on it with a pair of 3 into one open megaphones, Quicksilver lower unit and quicky foot throttle and Jackplate with trim. If you ever attended a boat race in the 70's, the megaphones on a Merc are something to behold at full song, LOUD does not even come close!!!!!
We are going to the lake today and give the old girl a whirl and see if everthing checks out, While I am no race driver with these, the first time I drove this hull it was under the guidence of a pro, the former owner raced all the time.
Outta be a BLAST!!!!!!! At the ripe old age of 47 pulling 3 G's might be painfull, but its gonna be a great way to spend a afternoon.
