Agree probably the most beautiful engine they ever built......welllll their first FAT 50 was pretty sharp too. Neighbor had one when I was a kid hanging off a Penn Yan or similar type lapstrake hull. Very pretty setup.

I remember gazing at those when they were new. The dreams of a young boy. Probably runs as good now as then.

Someone had too much flat black paint and too much time on their hands (looks like they ran out of paint on the trailer)
