I almost made a post to that thread to bring it back to the top, but then thought to leave the integrity of the thread as it was...and leave it at its place as the oldest thread.
Did a litttle digging around and its neat to see some of the original members :), and those who appear to be gone :( It's hard to believe that we've been posting here for almost 4 years.
Todays trivia question....Who was the first member?

I gotta look again . . . but I think it was "Labii" Louis Burney. CB and MJ were about a day after and CB was first to post. Labii hasn't been around too much . . . for the newer members . . . Labii is responsible for most of the v20 catalogs in the Gallery and contacting Lee Wangsted from Boating World Magazine . . . Reel's 15 Minutes of fame!!

P.S. - If anyone goes back and finds the thread . . . please forgive me. I kinda threw a tantrum when a lot of the research I did i.e. Bay of Pigs v20 photo, contact with John Deknatel (c. raymond hunt) and military v20 information didn't end up in the article. Lee also incorrectly credited Harry Schoell for the V20 Design.
