I'll keep it short. I was in MR Ducks back in the late 80's Gary and I were talking and he was asking me about what I thought about repowering Jennys Express. (1st one) He had already knew what power he wanted to use. After talking to him about the results he wanted to get with the motors. I told him by the time the job was done he would be better off selling his Cigarette as is and ordering a new one with power he wanted. He was not aware at the time that the bigger motors would need differant drive height to get the results wanted and TRS's weren't going to cut it. When I ran into him the following summer he had
a new Cigarette and was very happy with its speed and thanked me for the avise. The way Gary and I first met, we were both running north on Ocean City shoreline and I came up along side and we went at it. I pulled him and he was very suprised how fast my old 27 Avanti ran.

01-01-2011 02:47 PMClustergear, I remember your Avanti, and MR Ducks,One of my girlfriends was a bartender there. You may remember me, I had a Red and White 30 ft Scarab early 80's then in 86' made the jump to a 35' Cigarette White W Red/Gold/Black stripes.We would close the place down at 2am then jump in the boat for a "Ocean Run".I Ran with Doll-R-Bill as well during that time.His boat was Kevlar and had 460 Mercs.I could almost catch him with the Scarab (370's) on a calm day but when the ocean kicked up I was Done!To this Day I have scars on my RH knee where I got hurt in a Race with Bill.
