Seems the dairy business has been very VERY good to Mr Barber. Been to his museum many times of course, even played is golf course. But I didn't know about his marina down in the Florida panhandle!

Here's some pix taken by an adventure rider passing through on his way to Alaska.

One of them (3rd photo, 2nd from the right) looks very much like my 1936 Evinrude-Elto "Ace" 1.4 hp outboard motor. For reverse, you wrap the starter rope around the flywheel the other way, shove the spark advance lever to the other side of TDC, give it a pull, and it runs backwards.

If it surges, that's normal, upshift.

I recognize some of those motors from
the boats my Dad rented and took me fishing off Long Island in the mid-late 50's.

Weren't those days fun? Every time I hear the Elto start, it takes me back there for a second.
