Ha! I remember that bear incident. I spent some time in Faribault too. Neat little town, but you get tired of it pretty fast. You just never get tired of Duluth. A really cool town....just the right size, not too big, not too small. The StarCraft made a nice boat. My wife has one with an old 150 Black Max. The boat is practically indestructible....the motor IS indestructible. I will do some research, I have some old information in my library of vintage stuff. My very first real job was a StarCraft and Johnson/Evinrude dealer here in Duluth. 1971. Lakeland Sports. Did cleaning, detailing, and inventory. Some light mechanic work. I was only 15. Then went to work for Coca Cola. Made some good money selling pop like Tab and Fresca. Then I realized soft drinks were full of poison, particularly the sugar-free stuff, and I quit. Bought out an old three-man body shop and started in auto body and never looked back. Kept up my marine repair....love it. I wish other techs here would touch on a bit of their history. I know about Joe Reeves....totally remarkable man. Racer is also an Icon. This a family forum, thousands of years of experience, I just wonder how they all got here, and why they spend hours and hours for free, just to help people they don't know. Thanks everyone, I am grateful for all I learn....from all of you.
