Hey Guys,
Wish I could be there with you. Spoke to Marty this morning, Tim and Steve yesterday afternoon. Sounds like everything is going great! Spoke to Jen Abel this morning and she is thrilled with the boat display. She is very impressed, not only with the boats but the people there as well. She said everyone is an absolute pleasure. Great job guys representing CCF! -Keith |

Just a quick update on what's going on. All the ccfan boats are quietly tucked away side by side according to year under a big tent right on the main lawn. I wasn't here 10 mins before we started playing boat shuffle and had the truck hooked up to a new 200. I was very tempted to just "Borrow" it for a while but figured I wouldn't get too far. I saw Andy Mapple cruising round on a bike, Scott Byerly hanging round the hotel lounge and Marty said he has already bumped into Mr. Ralph. It's already sizing up to be a great weekend!

Steve drive safe with the cargo..... Just to let everyone know, I will not be able to make it.. Due to some timing of events down here. But I have been in contact with the crew that is going and wishing them well on thier travels. But most of all I will miss seeing the CCFans. So if anybody is going please tell them all Dave said: "Hey" !! But the good thing is that I will have my camera man on the site to take all great photo's to share. Tim we thank you for that... Get a shot with Marty grinning from ear to ear.. Dave |

No TSC1 represented? Sad! I guess upon re-reading it's decades, not hulls.

Thanks for responding Tim and Marty.
As was said, this is NOT A CCF REUNION but the 51st Masters where there is an invitation only boat display featuring four selected CCF Ski Nautiques (plus corporate's '61 Ski Nautique and the new 2010/11 Ski Nautique 200) representing six decades of Ski Nautiques. By all means please attending the 51st Masters and connect with fellow CCF members - there will be plenty of you there! However, there is very limited room for boats and all boat displays have already been coordinated. The selected boats for display will be: 1961 - Art Cozier 1972 - Scott Zuelzke 1988 - Tim Morfoot 1993 - Marty Mabe 2009 - CorrectCraftFan.com Edition 196 - brought by Steve Karras ... and the 2010 Ski Nautique represents decade number six! As Marty indicated, there may be another opportunity to display CCF boats at a future Masters. Last year there was The Dart; this year four Ski Nautiques from CCF; next year, who knows?? Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, Keith |

Marty is right on..
The Masters is a very structured event. The placement of these boats has been coordinated and are really in quite a prominent display area. Robin Lake is very controlled and very small. There really is no place for many more... That being said, It is a fantastic event! Great for young families to enjoy on the beach, around the lake or on bikes. Hard core ski bums can park in the pavilion and have front row seats for terrific skiing.... Come on if you can, don't worry about the boats.... but definitely bring sunscreen........ |

Ok guys, This was an invitation opened up to CCFan a couple of months ago. Keith posted about what this entailed and we responded. Then Keith in turn with Correct Craft,I guess picked the boats to represent the different 'Generations'.
He then in turn contacted us to see if we were on board. And the rest is history. So he doesn't know if this will be an annual thing with The Masters or not, but this is an honor for those that got picked. So no this is not a CCFan event for a so called 'Reunion', it was an invitation only event for these 5 boats. So not to be harsh or sound indifferent but that's where this event stands. These 5 CCFan boats will be displayed on the grounds under a tent provided for them. The beginning of this thread was to draw interest in just if people wanted to come to the Masters then meet up on a lake nearby just as a little get together. But then Correct Craft contacted Keith about an idea of getting some boats together to represent the 'Generations' of the CC Boats and how they changed through the years. So don't be discouraged if you can't get through the gate with a boat, because this is not a CCFan Event per-say. Thanks Marty Mabe |

Steve, Well I guess you could bring your boat and come out meet and hang out with other fans. The tournament is going on and that is always fun to watch. If you bring the boat it will just have to hang out in the parking lot with the rest of the vehicles.
I believe you can still get tickets at the gate. It may just cost you a few more $. |

Well, I guess this answers a lot of questions for me. Now I don't have to be stressed out about getting my boat project finished this week. I thought all we had to do is show up with our boat. I tried calling Jen about twenty times last week and got a busy signal.
So am I correct in saying if we don't have a reservation and tickets, we cannot bring our boats? Oh well, I guess the golf course will get the money I was going to spend in Georgia. |

Guy's I'm guessing it's too late to bring your boat to the Masters to be put on display representing CCFan. Those of us bring boats have been in contact with Jen Abel via e-mail or Telephone. We have also had to commit to having the boat there Thursday night as acess to the display tent that the boats will be under will be blocked off by venders rolling in early Fri morning. I believe you can still get tickets at the gate and by also calling the Masters Tournament website. I want to say that they will offer you a discount if you tell them you a member here but don't quote me on that.

Hey Keith its Brian Kerlin, I just baught a 1984 SN 2001. I live in Columbus, GA at Ft. Benning not to far from Callaway. The boat is in very good condition and all orginal for the year, but the motor has been replaced with a 350. My wife's parents are Kim and Bill pilcher, they used to ski at sea world and are very familiar with Callaway Gardens, Kim used to work there years back. I would like to take the boat and display it, so that way I can ask a TON of questions, as this is out first boat. Thanks Brian bkerlin1984@yahoo.com

[QUOTE=Morfoot] I talked to Jen Abel today.........
I tried calling Jen 20 times this week using the number a girl gave me that was selling tickets and all I got was a busy signal. What number do you have or can you tell me if I can just show up whenever, buy my ticket and bring my boat? Thanks, scott |

Just got a call tonight from a friend, and I think three of us are going to drive down for the day on Saturday. I will be wearing a "new" Correct Craft tee shirt that just came this week. Looking forward to seeing some of you guys.

Scott,
You aren't the only one trying to get it all put back together. I'm got my 86' C-10 torn apart trying to get it repainted and put back together before the 27th. I've got the new(rebuilt) 350 motor in it with all its' issues fixed now I got the bed, 1/4 panels, hood, bumpers, front and rear windows out. All I got to do is shoot the cab red and put it back together. Time is creeping on us both I believe. |

Good One!!! My wife was cracking up. I work at night so I must have been out of it when I wrote that. I hope to get the boat I have been working on ready. It's only about a four hour drive from my house. I am putting the gas tank, bilge pump and battery box in today. Hope to by carpet this weekend. The only problems I see are getting the engine in and some bearing problems on the trailer. |

OMG!!!! The entire place will instantly become Sacred Ground when he steps out of the car.................!!!!!... Just kidding...but I would like to show him my boat if it gets ready.
We would be staying at a relative's house at lake martin, Alabama which is about 110 miles from Cypress Gardens. Would probably stay there friday and saturday night. It all depends on the progress of my boat. If I can get off the computer, I may finish. scott |

I talked to Jen Abel today regarding whether or not she was going to mail the passes for the tournament or was it a will call type of set up. In conversation with her she told me that her grandfather "Mr. Ralph" Meloon will be there in attendance. If any of you are on the fence about going then maybe this will give you more incentive to do so. Rooms at Callaway Gardens are almost gone so you'd better call her now and get your tix early. She also told me that if you show on the day of the event you could have gotten a pavilion pass (in advance) for the price of a beach pass. So bring your familys, your CCFan T's, your coolers and come on down for good time with the rest of us!

Keith,
I may be able to attend if I get my stringer rebuild finished. It's going to be close. Do you need a firm committment from me or can I just show up if I can? Thanks, Scott Branum 1975 Correct Craft Skiier |
