The proposed revi- sions also will update, reorganize, clarify, and simplify current rules. • Antitrust Regulations.

MORE POWER FOR YOU

With increased horsepower, more engine choices, and an expanding on-water service network, Deere

Power is better than ever.

Additions include the 300 hp 6076AFM and 195 and 220 hp 6068TFM. Unlike some, these quiet, dependable, smooth-running diesels don't scream for your attention. But their fuel- efficient, high-torque, powerful performance will have you taking notice.

The Deere Power fleet includes seven 4- and 6- cylinder diesels in naturally-aspirated, turbo- charged, and aftercooled configurations. All are loaded with features that'll help keep your boat on the water, and your business on an even keel.

For reliable auxiliary, gen-set or propulsion power from 70-300 hp, see your John Deere marine dealer or engine distributor. Or call Deere

Power Systems, 319/292-6060. FAX: 319/292-5075.
