Default Mercury Marine factory tour

For those who may not realize, we have a contingent of LT-5s visit the mother ship at Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac, Wi.

You can read about it in this thread. Let me know if you'd like to come.

As Dom says, we're meeting at Mercury Marine Racing HQ in Fon Du Lac, WI Friday September 19 at 10 AM for a plant tour, lunch and car show. It is being promoted internally by Mercury. We have a good group going and if any additional ZRoners can make it, all the better.--Bob
