I remember Yeofy and it's a fast boat. Check to make sure snow has not piled up on the deck winter after winter . . . pull some of the gear off the deck and pull out the ice pick probe.

:: That is all I needed. This means it is hull# 97 and was

:: 88 with Jeff Mardigali on the boat. It has been out of
:: the scene for quite some time but I am glad it has
:: finally been located. Shoot me an e-mail if you have any
:: questions about the e27. I have owned three over the
:: years now and they are great boats that can go anywhere!
