Good fun

I was about 14 yrs old when I first saw Marine Boy.The theme music for the first episodes was kind of eerie, but they came out with a better theme.Marine Boy was a member of the Ocean Patrol. Bulton and Piper were his friends on the ship.He breathed underwater by chewing oxygum, an invention of Prof. Fumbles. I have seen every episode of this series. Although it was sometimes poorly drawn, it is interesting and very watchable.Some of the people who did the voices,are the same ones used on Kimba,The White Lion and Speed Racer.Maybe this series is on the cable network now,I really dont know. But,I would like to see some of the episodes again.They bring back such memories.
