Nowadays, most of us wouldn't even THINK of surfing behind an o/b.

That guy is certainly one funky fellow. Neutral

First boat specifically built was the Wave by Ski Centurion. A more refined model is still produced as the Gekko Bazooka. www.gekkosports.com for a look.

Everything looks fine, back when you looked out for your own safety not somebody else.

The Kiekhaefer Mercury 90HP outboard (Mercury 900) was built in 1965 and by looking at the dudes' banana hammock trunks I say it wasn't to long after 1965 that that pic was taken. Very Happy
