TOPIC: Piece of Merc history for Doc

Doc
I saw this on craigs list today and thought of you. You should get it for the man cave lol. I would bet its either a dealer display or yet another stolen piece from the factory. Tons of that stuff came out over the last few years. I had a friend that had a merc 1500 cut-away. Not sure what he did with it.

That one ain't plastic, either! Bet it weighs quite a bit, even cut-out as it is.

Down in Belfair, WA (not far from the Doc's place in Shelton), used to be a shop called Sande Boat Works (the creators of the Sande Ace runabout).

They had a plastic Merc Tower of Power cutout on the outside wall. When they shut down and auctioned-off everything, the cutout went, too.

Along with a Mint Sande Ace that had been hanging upside-down in their showroom for practically forever.

Talk about some history! As I recall the lucky winner of the Ace auction was one of the members of the local Sande Ace club.

Wow, thats so cool! Friend mine (HD Dealer, still is had a HD motor cut away. And when I bought my Bayliner first moved here,guy lived Mason Lake, the boat was at Sande Boat works! Just had trim motor rebuilt!

For those who have not seen Doc at work, heres a pic to show he does not need a lightweight cutaway LOL.

Lol, I posted the pic, i'm surely not saying anything. Some superheros leap tall buildings in a single bound, our merc hero hoists immovable objects and smiles doing it.

Give ya hint though as it AINT plastic!
