Press Release
January 15, 2004

Sterndrive Engineering published an Alpha One install guide today on its
website www.Sterndrive.cc. The URL address for the guide is
http://www.sterndrive.cc/pdf/a1.pdf.

"This guide was written with the do-it-yourselfer in mind" said Justin Webb
of Sterndrive Engineering. "The illustrated guide provides a step-by-step
set of instructions that makes the installation process easy for a first
time installer." The boat used for the installation guide was a 20 foot
1987 Checkmate with a 260 Mercruiser. This is the same boat that consumed
over $40,000 of gasoline during 2003 testing Alpha One drives.

"This is the first of many tech articles that will be written and published
on our web site" said Greg Pickren of Sterndrive Engineering. "Our goal is
to establish www.Sterndrive.cc as the foremost technical authority on
Mercruiser drives."

Sterndrive Engineering is a Clearwater, Florida company that is offering
complete new replacement Alpha One drives for $1,195. Alpha One and
Mercruiser are trade names of the Brunswick Corporation. Sterndrive
Engineering is not affiliated with the OE manufacturer. For more
