Diesel smell from the generator located below the bow berthing compartment on the sub. Napalm is another one that you don't forget either.

Nothing like the smell of two stroke at daylight. I honestly don't know what smell on earth was/is better than this.

My earliest memories of 2 stroke smoke deliciousness date back to my Grandfather taking me out in his jon boat with a Johnson 9.5 Seahorse early in the morning, and I graduated from there once I got on my own. My last 2 stroke outboard was a Merc 225 EFI. It was a hoss. Miss that smell.

So, general consensus is....grand parents had smelly places and lives. Hahaha. I miss mine all the time. What I’d give for a few minutes with each of them just one more time.

Our neighbor had a Johnson Seahorse and my uncle had a Mercury like my dad. The Johnson oil smelled different than the Mercury oil!

I remeber the smell of dead skunks along the highways....we didn't have A/C and closed windows back then so it seemed to take forever to get the smell out of the car after you passed one... Worse is hitting a big one and having it unleash its stuff all over the tire, hood, and windshield. I had to user the washer and wipers. Then my boss reaches for the fan switch. I tried to grab his hand but too late. I was like dude do you know where the air intake is? You could smell skunk on the tire for a week. Just glad it was a rental.
