Then considered America's "longest war", an armed standoff between US

few people actually know how the war ended. Find out how the

Nicely done, Chuck. That's what I'd call a 'very interesting' boating post! I also like the article about the Lehr small outboards. If I needed a small outboard, I'd sure be looking into one of those.

I agree with Wayne's comments about the internet version of the magazine. Very easy to peruse.

I wonder if that Lehr was designed and engineered by Karen's blokes,
down under?
