    Gee Jackie I forgot how handsome you really were back in the day!!!!! You know Gary wasn't looking at you he was looking at the blond standing behind you. You know he wouldn't have been smiling at you.

    My God Jackie; If I didn't know better, that looks like me a few years back (except for all the hair).

    God almighty was that boy ever ugly------so ugly---he was bordering on handsome------small wonder he could pull blondes better than any other guy in the world--AND his knowledge of boats and all things relevant wasn't too shabby either

    This is Jeff Briggs ON class 2 liter Evinrude V6 in Paris Six Hours 1974..this boat was doing way better than most of the 2 liter Mercīs..but the Scotti boat lost some plywood......I guess to much power..!!

    Do you remember when race boats were less sophisticated, had names and fun to race? You could also have a conversation as your overtook your fellow competitor!
