Some awesome old "marketing ads" for boats...
« on: October 06, 2013, 10:46:16 PM »
Theres some really awesome historical content on this website I stumbled across.  Lots of boat pictures, big, small, jet, etc.  One of the cool sections I came across is all the old original ads that boat manufacturers used.  Some of them are really sweet and some of the "claims" are hilarious, especially with where boats are today.  "family performance" meant there was more than 1 seat, whereas today it means a huge tower and room for 32 people.

not sure if its something that maybe brad can suck down, put into a gallery and make sure its kept online as long as possible for all to enjoy.

That is the coolest video ever!! Crazy to think you could actually run a small jet on Havasu without the worry of a 42' cigarette boat running you over!

What's wrong with driving a Nordic?
