Well....here I am snowed in, with all flights canceled, so I thought I would post some info on our website and some additional photos for everyone before I finally get out for the Miami show.

We have the rough draft back on the home page, colors, and rough layout for words.

Also noted that the English are trying to save Surfury in another thread....that's great, I wish them all the luck and hope our members will do whatever they can to help preserve such a great part of the early years.

However, we have our own piece of history with that design. Here is a photo of an early Thuderbird / Formula race boat, driven by Dick Genth.

Top Banana,

Sorry to hear about the flights...

Please let me know what the URL will be for your website so that I can get a link added to www.SharkeyMarine.com
Thanks!
