It's amazing how many things Ole Evinrude was involved in. Boat
motors, Briggs& Stratton, Harley Davidson, as well as ... lawn
mowers. And probably a bunch more...


Quite a guy!


His son Ralph didn't do badly, either. Among other accomplishments, he
married Frances Langford.

Harry, tell him about the time Ole Evinrude would come over to your
house for dinner, just to shoot the **** with your Dad. If you Dad could
only have lived long enough to see how you have taken command over
rec.boats, he would have been very proud.
