Bob, Thanks for the update on Lyle Hess, the news made an already dark day a little darker. Never met Lyle but did have a chance to hear him talk boats at the Newport in the water show in the early 80's. He understood boats and I and the rest of the M boaters are the beneficiaries of his knowledge. I appreciate his work and the great job you and Jerry do in transferring his work to the final product. Keep it up! Gary
