Quixotic.
This was a “cigarette class” boat about 50 ft in length. The shimmer of the foot-deep shine was only surpassed by the two polished, stainless steel exhaust pipes protruding out the back of the transom.
Boats of this type and class have two engines, V-8's. Therefore there would be four exhausts protruding from the transom ----- not two.
Also, how would you be able to tell if the boat had aero mufflers, or any mufflers for that matter, if only the exhaust pipes were visible????
Hmmmmmmmm.....
Where's the beef
