Keith Douglas

Sold Audio-Visual items to schools nation-wide for 25 years, then went to work for AOL. Retired in 2001. Live in North Florida. Like to visit greater San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California. Southern California is OK, too! Love my wife, children, son-in-laws and grandchildren. Highlights since retirement: Finally bought the Porsche (there is no substitute) and have spent 6 days at high speed race training. (6 days does not a week make, but I learned much!). 3 days w/ Skip Barber Racing, Introduction to Open Wheel Racing, @ Daytona International Road Course; 2 days w/ Skip Barber Racing, Advanced Open Wheel Racing @ Sebring International 24 hr Course (3.56 mi layout); and 1 day with Hurley Heywood, et. al., at Brumos University (in my Porsche Carrera S). Bought the 30' Sea-Ray Express Cruiser w/ Blue Water MerCruiser Racing Engines. 11,000 lbs, that would go 41 MPH @ 1.1 MPGs. LOL Sold this boat after 7 years because it was a POS. We had some good times in this boat, including a trip from Jacksonville to the Keys and return. Turned out Brunswick AMC had put engines in the boat which were too heavy resulting in water being sucked into the manifold when more than about three people were on-board. If ever I were to own a boat again, it would be diesel of quality, such as a Viking 46' built in the 1980s, or a Huckins FairForm Flyer (built from a patented hull design of the 1930s). I miss boating, but love living on the salt marsh, as long as BP or some other oil company does not ruin the Atlantic Coast.
