I also knew someone that attended a dealer meeting with Carl. One dealer asked if the automatic transmission engines were ever going to be switched over to a "normal" water pump. This guy said that Carl went into a tirade like he had never seen, as if his head was going to explode, saying things like, "Don’t you guys understand that you sell the finest outboards ever built," blah, blah, blah….. Apparently the guy that asked the question wanted to crawl under his seat and die…..
