I've had my fill

Have had just about enough of this fast boat stuff. From now on it's just me, the wife and the boom box.

Nah, that's not a chart plotter, it's the new built in Sextant-O-Matic. More useful than the optionally available Nautivictrola.

Thought we might race the boat as a family. Strange rules here though, the boat doesn't need a measurement certificate but the wife does. Don't know what you mean about funny clothes.

The Excalibur engine is with Express Racing Engines in Florida. They did a number of engines for our Reefer Racing boats.
