Re: Third Baron 20

I have a friend with a couple of Super Florida 20's on Garda... smashing! These are all going to be driven and enjoyed... regularly... can't stand these thi...

Re: The distant sound of 454 thunder
That sounds so sweet to my thawing ears. Summer is right around the corner. You will have some fun. What outdrive is that, and how much power you recon that beast is putting through it? Chris Chris if it is an LS7 as I'm told could be close to 500. The sterndrive is the original Volvo brand new in ...

Re: Baron 20 Front Bench Seat
Fino 30 ! What a boat. I saw one a few years back, docked right on my side. A couple with a little girl inside, touring the islands. I always wondered where they slept, when the guy told me that the girls sleep inside and him on the rear couch. He didnt seem to bother at all. Was a tender boat on a...

Re: Baron 20 Front Bench Seat
I think I might have answered my own question about the steering wheel on a Baron, Here is a old advert scan and if you zoom in on the top two pics https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ao_5_fOYcCuHgZjOQnMg5KDF7FQ5bi8 you find a wheel possibly like these two https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ao_5_fOYcCuHgZjORHf-AAfUns3DfE0 or http...
