Find out how the Confederate Navy played an important role in the crazy political drama that finally ended the war and established a permanent international border. www.pacnwboat.com 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? |

Bernardo Jorge Herzer, the CEO of Lehr, was a licensed ship's captain, spent a lot of time at sea, and, in fact, made trips to Australia. It wouldn't surprise me if he didn't get his great ideas from Karen. |

How to weld a rusty diesel engine ontop of a handbuilt rusty lower unit and call it an outboard motor? Herzer's company has a propane fueled four cycle engine on its outboard. It also has similarly powered lawn tools. |

I'll give him one point for staying somewhat on topic, albeit a nasty, condescending, demeaning, and totally inappropriate comment. Good going Krausie. You haven't lost your touch. |
