Probably a really stupid question, but since I don't know how many boats Tahiti Mike has... is that a Tahit?

Also oddly enough, I like the smell of engine degreaser. This is going to be another informative thread by Tom and the rest of the family at Jet Boat Performance. I'm looking forward to it. Thanks.
