Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I really enjoyed the video looking forward to seeing more especially anything wooden boat review my family owns an original ditchburn
Hey Mike - one of your better videos! The music was very nice and well suited. All of your shop's boats in the show were amazing - completely unfair to pick only one. So happy the weather cooperated on Fri & Sat.
Thanks for the excellent video. I hope to attend your event someday. I recently attended the 50th annual Lake Tahoe wooden boat show. The show included the legendary Thunderbird.
Really nice to see so many amazing boats! Snake Charmer looked so sharp! Cool to see the unrestored 003 nearby too. Would have enjoyed introducing myself and chatting with you Friday morning but no worries, it looked like you were pretty busy with judging.
Have you ever come across a Chris Craft 21-foot Monterey outboard express cruiser? It was probably sold around 1955 as a kit, maybe through Sears catalog. Sterling Models of Philidelphia produced a 1/12 scale model kit and in the 80's Dumas models, after buying Sterling, sold a similar kit. it had a windscreen on top of the cabin, and a 35 horse Johnson outboard with the rounded maroon cover style.
June 19th 2024, and I've just watched this video again - it'll never grow old! 👍

I have never seen one although we don't really work on outboard boats much. Sounds interesting I'll have to do some looking.
Ah yes , having the money to dabble in the heady pleasure of playing with wooden boats !!! … got Hacker Craft ???
What is the make model and year of the Lose Shoes boat? Really like the lines!
That is a 1949 Chris Craft 25' Sportsman Twin engine one of 42 ever made. We are restoring one of the 42 right now in the shop.
