Thanks, Skoontz, for your history lesson.....amazing how this whole thing played out.....
When Greenmarine bought OMC they didn't really want it, they wanted to make money one their stock...They were convinced Roger "GOD" Penske wanted OMC and would "pony up" another 200 million for OMC....Which the Green Group would have made off the inflated OMC stock...When Roger balked at the "BUMP" in price, he was quoted as saying, "I don't mind spending $200 million, but I want it in machines, not stock."
I often wonder "IF" Roger Penske would have bought OMC....He had stated publicly that "He'd support Boat Racing."
It was at about this time when I had written Roger a letter telling him I wanted him to run for President of the USA...
