thats cool. Hey does anyone know if its possible to scan an entire magazine and put it in this pdf format? I have a few early eighties programs from Key West (84,85 and 86) as well as the Northport 200 and would like to make the file available to others. Would the file be to big? Dont know much about saving in Adobe. Thanks all

here is the 1986 cover. I'm posting them as fast as I am getting them. the guy who has them works for the Sheriff's Dept. and their firewall blocks a lot of photo's.

GlassDave,

Try KINKO'S or any photo copy shop, have them color
print the magazine for you and format it onto a disc.
I'm currently doing this on a magazine from 1959 .
Hydroplane "Gold Cup" racing from the Michigan area.......Hope this helps.

Thank you......I couldn't open the zip file.

That article brings back one of the most painful days of my life.

Our greatest hull became our greatest heartbreaker.

God Bless you Mark Lavin.................

The flame still burns in us, the proud members of the "James Gang".

Of the Lavins I mean. It feels like yesterday that boat was displayed for the first time. I will forever have goose bumps remembering that summer and heart ache that autumn.
