Thanks for the kind words, gentlemen. I'm having a difficult time letting this incident go. How stupid was it to drive into an area that I wasn't familiar with. I know better than that. I've been boating since I was a little kid. Patricia is still dealing with a sore neck and shoulder. Please use my incident as a reminder to check things twice!

I had the best time on Saturday at NECC. You guys are great. Next year I'm sure we'll do a few things different to improve. You can already count Patricia and I into the Great Lake Reunion. We will mark the dates on our calendar. Again, what a great group of people you all are!!

Thanks, Marty. Patricia and I are Correct Craft owners for life. These boats are no joke. We strongly feel that the accident could have been worse with a cheap quality boat. We're fortunate to walk away from this.

The NECC did a fantastic job hosting our event. We appreciate everything. Maybe next year, we'll have more entertainment and fun stuff.

Hey Everyone - I had a great time meeting everyone and getting to spend time on the lake relaxing! I can't for next year - maybe I'll even have a boat by then!

Brad - I'm all in for the Mega Ski - keep me posted on the plans for 8/27

Keith - you know how wonderful we thought the weekend was... thanks for including all of us!

    Anyone have any issues with paint coming off their trailer on Sunday?? Pulled the boat from Milton, drove back to Mousam, dumped it in, then noticed my paint peeling off the trailer like paint stripper.

Brad looked very comfortable on that ski. I thought he might have made an offer to Duck Soup to buy it.

    Probably was when I dumped it back into Mousam. That would not surprise me if it was. Thanks for the reply.

PS: Brad can buy that suicide ski, then turn a huge profit on it!!! Just be sure not to sell it to someone inexperienced skiing in a group as it seems it could amputate body parts!!

HAHA- not quite ready to trade in my Connelly F3 for that old woodie just yet.
Anyone get a photo of the fin on that old ski? What was that thing made out of? Lead?
Jeff- good luck to you and your sister with the ski show this weekend! Wish I could make up there:(

Hey, just got back from vacation, and will also say thanks to Keith and Ken for a sick day at NECC and on the lake...

It was a real bummer we couldn't ski with you guys Saturday--damn impeller. We took it to NECC in case it was something more serious, but they never got to it, so we hauled it back one more time to our lake, where the local marina there did it in 18 mins.

I really couldn't believe how little damage was done to the Rock Nautique. From how everyone described how it was stuck on the rocks, I really expected there to be some dents or something, at least, in the hull, but nothing...

Hope we can make it next year... thanks again...

Sounds like you guy's had a great time!

Ken...sorry to hear of your misfortune...I had a situation a couple years ago much like yours. I put a stars a stipes MC 20 feet out of the water on a sand bar...not very fun! I was lucky...only thing lost was the prop....and seeing my wifes face as she removed the cooler from her head was not a treat!   those things do happen. Hope you both are doing well.

    Sorry you had trouble with your boat, Austin.I was going to try to get up there to check out that lake,but one of my co-workers crashed his motorcycle earlier this week and broke his pelvis(among other things).Needless to say I had a busy week at work being short a guy.Maybe next time.Hope the rest of your trip was cool.I tried to get out on the water today,but it was super windy and real rough all day.

    Hey Brad Thanks!! It was very WINDY and cool. It was tough on everyone, but had a great time as always. My sister and I were overtaken by the presense of Keiths parents. What a surprise!! Hope they enjoyed it! Maybe you can make one next year. BTW, hows Ken doing??

    Mike, just put the boat back in tonight. Maybe next weekend will be better!!!

That sucks, seems like so many accidents this week...lol

I like how one of the shots online of the reunion is of our boat tied up w/ a couple others on the lake w/ the engine cover up--but no one has to know its b/c its overheating--very nice Keith... ;-)

Take care guys, I bet next years will be at least twice as big...

   Jeff,

    Can't imagine a ski show in that wind-wow.Did it even make it to 70 degrees this weekend?Took Steve Nichols and his son Cody for a spin in the 210 today,but didn't see either one of the mustangs in the water at your place.Did you take them over to Square Pond?

Sorry it's taken me so long to get to this just one of those Summers that wasn't. Ken & Keith many thanks to you for pulling the event off with class, hats off to both of you! Ken sorry to here about the mogul run, 2 motos come to mind. Live free or die, those are your two choices and The Granite State! We have the same markers on my lake and if you don't know the waters your very likely to hit some Granite I could point out one particular rock with many colors of paint on it. Also wish I could have shook your hand and made you ski the woody.... by the way it's not for sale. I plan on breaking it myself and the way I skied the other day it shouldn't take to long and then it will hang next to some 1920 snow skis on my cabin ceiling. Keith I emailed you at your Correctcraftfan email did you get it? It was great to meet all of you and good to put a face to the emails. Again thanks, what a great group of people.

Redelf-

....that was incredibly poor judgement to bash the dealership that made this reunion possible.

Changing an impeller should be a job that you can handle yourself......especially on a DD.

Buy a wrench,get a clue, and ditch the NYC attitude.
