Default Is this Bobby Wind's Evinrude??

I have never met, or know Bobby Winds, but have seen enough ribbing about his Envinrude preference this picture got my attention ... and thought this would be worth a laugh!!

Wait a sec. Is that a Mercury?

That guy probably had to pay extra to get something other than a Yamaha on his G3.

Tongue weight would be no issue on that rig. Could tow it with a Schwinn.
