This one is for the folks like Sam, who if you have a question regarding anything wierd, exotic, or never heard of, would usually know the answer....
Lemme splain. We were at a party last night, two function, to see friends and promote business, and the topic of the speaker was China, and the short version of history from 7000 years ago until now. Very interesting to say the least. I met a guy and his wife, who legally immigrated from Johanasburg, South Africa 23 years ago and are now citizens. Turns out he was a big gear head, and we could not stop talking shop even through the cultural stuff being presented. He raced many exotic motorcycles, such as Velocete, Vincente, BSA, Norton, Ducatti and so fourth, and later turned to hydroplane racing....The big engine there was the 3 cylinder Mc motors and he also said McCullough made their own boats....Hydros to be exact. He is going to E-mail his cousin in South Africa to see if there are any photos of the rig which I thought would be pretty cool if there were...
Question posed....Do any of you know of Mc making their own hydros, let alone boats? Apparently Robert traveled to S.A. allot and there was/still is a huge market for their engines.
