"Goose" probably tries something like that too, but this is French, and the French at that time were known to be great tinkerers, with results to match. |

Yeah, I should have said it looks like something Guzzi *could* have made during the war. Something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cOlS_ShXf4 |

That boat is a high technology marvel incorporating 'eyeball sensormatic rotational assist'. Where you look is where you go. A sign on the bow says, "Don't look at women when operating this vessel." Sometimes the sign gets torn away. |

Sometimes the sign gets torn away. When I was a kid I had a 12' aluminum boat with a little 3hp outboard. I'd tighten the tension on the steering so the motor wouldn't move, sit in the middle seat and steer just by leaning towards one side or the other. Worked fine in large ponds. |
