why would they when they advertise mostly 300,000 dollar boats, or more..... with 1050 motors at least? it's a big boy catalog if you will! and for them to recognize randy and his craftsmanship i think is AWESOME!

I'll try to post some pics of the article. It's three pages in the March issue and will be handed out free at the Miami boat show and LA Boatshow. Hopefully I'll get some sales. They only got it up to 74.4 on a VERY windy 88 degree day, but they did'nt mention that the passenger was about 350 lbs!

Cool...I got PBM for years, but don't even know where I can buy it anymore. Would love to see this test.


350 lb passenger? Must have been on the bench at the stern. Nice job WM. Hope you get some sale from it.

I let my subscription lapse a couple years ago, but I'll go buy a copy and give them some support. Great job Randy, you continually make the boats we love that much better.
