Dear Ken,

I'd just like you to know how much I appreciate the "Rock Hopper and how good
it has been to our operation. We have a fleet of 22 boats and motors. The Allanwater
area, in which our Camp is located, is noted for fishing structure...very rocky, which
also includes a small rapids that has to be run to get to Kawaweogama, the big lake.

Before I started using the "Rock Hopper", in my worst years, I went through 14 lower
ends, not to mention props, prop shafts and propeller seals. In the two years I've been
using your "Rock Hopper", I havent' lost a single lower end in my fleet of 22 Mercury
motors. Without a doubt, this investment in your "Rock Hopper" has saved me thousands
of dollars, frustration and aggravation and I just want you to know much I appreciate the
"Rock Hopper". It's a great product and I wish you continued success.

With warmest personal regards,
