3 circles could also be a Park Avenue. I recently sold my late father's 2005 Park Avenue and it had the 3 ventiports (more commonly called portholes) on each side. Just read the number used to signify the number of cylinders. So the 6 (total) on my dad's Buick signifyed 6 cylinder engine.

That's funny, I didn't know they (Buick) were doing that circle thing again on today's cars. I was referring to some older Buicks from the 50's I think. It was a little before my time, but I think there was some distinction between the 3 circles and 4 from back in the 50's. Maybe it was # of cylinders even then????

Sorry to derail the thread a little. That Avalon is a GREAT looking boat!

Okay, that is really, really a good looking boat! Now, can you get the OB engine cowling painted the same color??? That would be a sweet setup.

What happens at the lake stays at the lake. Unless I have my camera handy.
