That's a sweet building Don. Did they run the base isolated from the grid instead of just backup power? Man that would burn a lot of diesel running the whole place on genset all the time.
Just got back from the fairgrounds to pick up my camper. Wifey and daughter refuse to drive the truck with the camper on so I had to go pick it up.
Go Carl..............bout' time he was back where he belongs........the winners circle!
Don, I copied the info on the motors, will give it to the "guy" this week.
Ran the boat today...........In the driveway with the "fake a lake" muffs on it....... started right up though, first turn of the key.
It's been 70 starts since he' been in the winners circle, so good for him! Are we ready for a fishing trip yet?

They never were hooked up to the grid. Just the gensets, and two 40,000 gallon diesel tanks.
One nice thing I didn't mention about the building was the "pit". The whole building is built over a 5' deep concrete pit. Yup! The floor is made of cement incased I beams. You can walk around UNDER the main floor! Way kool.......
