IIRC the Mike boat we used with the ACE board ended up with the SFUWO school for a number of years. I saw it down there during a number of the requals I went on. I think the last time I saw it was around 82/83. I think I have a picture of it somewhere and will look through that big box I've been going to put in order for the last 10 years.

The "Captain", a SP4 we called Spanky, drove it down the waterway from Ft Eustise (sp?), VA. Maybe the Army though it was cheaper to keep it there a while rather than drive it all the way back.
