In late 1959 we got mesmerized by Powercats and bought a few of them too. About that same time we switched from Comstock to Al's Outboard Service (Al Zink) on Venice Blvd. near Marina del Rey (the marina wasn't there then). Albert Jr. is still in the marine business in Lake Havasu at Al's Outboard. Ted Miller who worked at Al's in Venice as a mechanic in the '60s has had his own marine dealership in Boulder City, NV (All Seasons Marine) for years.
That's cool Havasuing!!!! You've been around a while haven't you? Do you have any old pics you could share?
