I stand corrected Duane.
I hope Scott has a short memory

Today, we pulled out the snow plow and pulled "early season" maintainence. The spring event can't come soon enough - even if I have to shovel my way to Florida with my bare hands.

Glad you guys had a good time.

Wow! Great seeing the regular crew (Dixon & Susan, Carla & Skip, Ken and Patti, Denny, Carl & Jeanne, Duane, Bill, and Brian) and meeting Islandtrader, Skiblet, and Tony. Even though we have had 2 CSC events on our West coast, the East Coast crew really represented as good or better than our West Coast group, both times. Thanks for towing the boats across the state guys. The bar has been set up there pretty high for food! Brian, next time put more pepper on the cocktail sauce , it was way too mild

. Tony's recently rebuilt 88 23SF Tracker ranks up there with Otto's as a quality Tracker rebuild. WE HAVE CREATED A "CULTURE" WITH OUR CSC GATHERINGS THAT NEEDS TO BE EXPERIENCED BY EVERYONE ON THIS GREAT WEB SITE! IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN, YOU NEED TO GET TO OUR NEXT ONE..........

First off, I'm not a Seacraft owner now but I could see myself being one as time and finances allow. I still have plenty of work ahead of me on my current restoration.

I camped at Ft. Desoto last weekend and admired your boats from the boat channel and in the ICW as I passed by throughout the weekend. I recognized many of your boats (maybe from FS Forum? Maybe from here.) as soon as I rounded the corner and I figured there must be a Classic Seacraft gathering.

I thought I'd drop by and compliment you on all the good looking boats. You know your boat is unique when somebody like me recognizes it at first sight from pictures posted on the internet.

I'd also like to thank Egg Sucking Dog and any of you that gave me advise when I was restoring my '76 Proline 24 guide series a while back. I never could have done it right without the help I received in various forums.

And cheers to the guy in your group who raised his beer to me as we passed by. I'm kicking myself for not walking down there, but we had a large group with lots of kids and every time I thought I was going to get away something came up.
