2009 CCF Midwest Reunion - Green Lake, WI

Joe, I appologize for offending you as well. It was a joke as I explained, and if a body were to look at it objectively and not as a cut on Brian...    It was purely coincidental that I used CA in the joke and that he lives there. I also don't see how I disparaged his home.

One bad joke and I feel like we should stay home.   

Sometimes we take things a little too seriously. I'm not surprised to be called a CS by 79, but lame by BKH?

I don't remember the Buffalo's post, but recall it was something to lighten up the tone. Joe's right, sometimes posts are taken the wrong way.

PeteB is an invaluable resource to this site, let alone a decent guy. I'm not offended that he wants to bring his Dunphy.

Yeah! At least 1 person got it!

I think we're all on the same page. People can use whatever boat they like on the water but only CC's will be on display at the Friday night 'boat show' and eligible for awards.

Along the same lines, I really only want to highlight how many CC's we have at the gathering. It is the number of Correct Crafts, and the variety, that makes the CCF Reunions unique. These events are now the largest Correct Craft boat gatherings anywhere. For me, there is nothing better than to see 40+ Correct Crafts, spanning six decades, out on the water together.

I do understand the challenges in attend with a boat. After all, for the fourth straight year I will not be bringing a boat to Green Lake. So bringing a Correct Craft is definitely not required.

Pete, I'm not offended at all. However, please don't think for a minute that any of us are tired of seeing either of your two beautiful Correct Crafts. It sounds like there are some logistical challenges in bringing one of your CC's. I completely understand but please don't let the fact that you brought them in previous years be a factor in whether you bring either boat this year.

My number one goal of these events is for anyone who's a fan of Correct Craft boats to feel welcome and to enjoy the company of fellow Correct Craft fans. My secondary goal is to have as many Correct Craft boats as possible in one location at one time - any model, any year.

I look forward to seeing everyone in Green Lake in July. It's going to be a great weekend!

Hey go easy on the old guy here!! You know it's not fun to pull a boat. I feel for the people with real long distances. Going all the way up north to pick up a CC and then coming back down to GL is a additional 350 miles for me and the extra day!!

I tease Paul, but he is really is a great ambassador for these events. He talks to everyone, gets to know everyone, including the wives. When the wives feel welcome it goes a long way towards their return to future events.

Hey Guys,
Here are a few photos of the 2009 CorrectCraftFan.com Reunion hat:

Yes It's hard for me not to be friendly to EVERYONE, including the wives, that's just my personality! Friendly is ALL though! I have WAY to much respect for all you guys! I still look forward to talking to them though(They are ALL cool as hell!) and hope nobody takes it the wrong way.(thanks for the kind words Brian) (

Yes my daughter is gonna be there and she can most definatly handle herself. I know she wants to wake skate behind the Promo boat. I guess it is gonna be there right? Adam W?

WOW the hat's look GREAT! I would love to have a couple of extra ones also!

Look forward to see'n everyone!

Paul,

Keith,
Cool hat, bring enough for everyone... LOL..

P Allen is signed up. It is Skicat and Kytom who made the trip together in the past. BKH

Dix will be working at the tournament all weekend, I believe he manufactures pontoon barges and stuff like that.

Hollywood wrote: Benjamin is trying to finish Skier #2 in time so I believe so he probably wants to wait and register the "correct" craft.

The outlook for the junk Skier being back together in time is looking pretty bleak... my guess is that Ill drag the Inca Gold boat again.

Thanks for calling me out Steve! Having not missed an official CCF reunion since GL '06, you know Im gonna do my best to make it happen... but Im sure you realize that the 1200 mile journey presents a small logistical challenge! The biggest hurdle is finding a copilot who A)has a clear schedule B)loves 20 hour car rides and C)is willing to hang out with a group of degenerates for the weekend. I have decided that I will NOT be going solo again this year- so thats a biggy. I'm tentative for 2 people, but will probably be a last minute sign up.

Moj, FYI it looks like Phil bought a '97 SN last fall.

Y'all having some sort of get together?

I've reserved campsite #19 for the long weekend, My brother-in-law bailed so if anyone is looking for a campsite let me know, otherwise I'll just cancel.
