Candice and I had a great time, it was nice seeing old faces and meeting a few new people. I know there are some that I missed, maybe next year. I don't think enough thanks can be given to Keith and Mojo for all the work put in as well as the Arrighi and Evans families contributions. Pictures to follow. Thanks to everyone for a fantastic weekend, the weather was not up to par but the company more than made up for it.

Karen and I arrived home at 7pm tonight, what a great time the whole week end was.Good food, good people great boats and what a time Dave, Steve and Allen prepared for all of us.
Third year and I still hear stories of the 100 degree week end, we are having a hard time with that story.The weather is uncontrolable but all else was first class.
Thanks again for all the hard work that makes this whole event worth a 2400 mile trip worthwhile.........Boat dr/Boat nurse

Glad to see everyone arriving home safe/Sad to see everyone arriving home. Another great event with world class people. I had to endure a little ribbing from the doc for showing up with a dist cap made of JB weld but brother Steve Evans helped me out in the process of having some parts overnighted in ot take care of that. I put a second ding in my prop trying to run her in the cove by the campground to see if I had the new cap and rotor installed correctly but brother Tim Benjamin came through with a new prop and a puller and the weekend was saved. You never do get enough time to really hang out and meet everyone at these events but I sure do like trying.

She is located in her hoist on Owasco Lake in Auburn NY with a standing invitation to all ccfans to come on out and give her a ride/drive and take a pull for just as long as I can keep her running.

Had a big time in GL thanks to everyone for making Jo & I feel so welcome. The weather was poor but the people were very special although I never doubted that.

Watched Keith and James foot early one morning when it was way to cold to get in the water they almost turned blue when they got back in the boat.

Special thanks to Reid for letting me drive the Orange crush at full noise on Sunday. Will post some pics and pass on some thoughts when I have more time.

Just left Chicago and heading east. Glad to see everyone making it home safely. Greg keep those pictures going. Was great to meet you in person would have liked more time to talk but time just seemed to run as fast as Joe's boat.
If you're going through hell, keep going

I just wanted to thank Reid for letting us drive the Orange Crush. I equate it to driving a Ferrari and it was amazing.
Big Thanks to Keith and Mojo for everything they did, it was really quite impressive. Mojo is also a hell of a dart player.
I had a great time and am already looking forward to the next one. Thanks again.

P.S. I'm going to try to scan the Barefoot Nautique Decals I got and get them to Keith for people to use as a template.

Tim,
Thanks for the correction on the speed - 57.6. I was typing that from my phone at the airport and going from memory.

Speaking of Lake George ... I made the announcement on Saturday night that Ralph Meloon Sr. will be attending the Lake George Reunion, with his son Ken Meloon.

I hope to have the Lake George Registration page up tonight or tomorrow.

For the record, my GPS recorded a max speed of 57.6 mph while sitting in the back seat during that run! I wouldnt be surprised to see it run 60 once he dials it in and gets on some faster water- Marshall, Alan and Reid all ran about 2mph slower at GL than they had elsewhere. Talk about a wild ride!

Many thanks to Keith, Mojo, Steve and Alan for pulling off another incredible midwest event this year! As usual, there wasnt enough time to see everything and talk to everybody, but it was great meeting some new faces and seeing old friends alike. I hope to see many of you in Lake George!

Greg,
Great pics (don't know how you kept still long enough to take pics while Joe was letting it loose). . . .

What a real pleasure to meet you and Amy! GL was a great time to renew friendships, to meet new friends, to shiver, and to tell somewhat truthful stories about boats.

Chuck

PS It anyone finds a Kodak digital camera in their boat . . . it's mine, oops.
