I find it pretty cool to run across people who work or know what I been working on for most of my life. There are very few people who ever heard of Twin Disc.
Back in the day Palmer Johnson was know for their Mega yachts. We had marinas and ship yards in several locations. If you watch the first Bourne Identity movie Jason Bourne goes to the bank I think in France and they rattle off some of the stuff he owns. One of them is a Palmer Johnson yacht.
Great talking to you and keep the pictures coming.
