The Johnson dealer, my father's friend, did have a competitive

I didn't know that Walter Kennedy owned a marine dealership or an
arena.


I thought he was talking about Maurice Podoloff, but it doens't make

offering sports tickets to people buying a marine engine.

Nope, sounds like a Lobster boat to me.
