Boat names??!!??

You've got to be kidding!

Steve

The boat came out with very little damage. Unbelievably the windshield was not damaged. The interior was torn up and that's about it. Insurance is replacing his interior with Century stuff, and they paid for detailing the boat. It should be looking good by summer.

tullfooter - I really like where you put the name and the colors you used! It looks good.

Riley- My Grandfather bought the boat new. Then sold it. Some years later my dad was looking for a boat and bought it back. I bought it off Dad. I thought Legacy was a good name for her, since three of us had owned her.

Orginally she had a dark navy hull with a white deck and off white bottom. When the boat was out of the family, the owner had the hull sprayed red. It looks really good red, it's just not orginal. The bottom and deck are the orginal color, and the interior is the orginal tan. I like her a lot. Not as good a wake as a Nautique, but still fun to ski behind. She is powered with a 255 Mercruiser -- a 350 chevy block.

Adam: Thanks for the offer but we are in Florida now. But we were on Sandusky Bay with our ski club for 30 years before me and the wife mover south.

eric; LOL...hadn't thought of the serpent in years. Can't belive there is water back in there...been dry for quite a few years. You been driving up that way to work on boats already?

we named our green correct craft "algae"      I always wanted to name one " a hole in the water"

John, i hear the the sea serpent is almost submerged over there in Huron, thats a good sign

John/jbear,

It's not too far a ride between Erie & Sandusky. About every other summer the family goes over to Cedar Point.

If you ever want to head over to Erie to do some skiing let me know.

Oh and to stay on topic... my '80 Century Resorter is named Legacy (bought it off my Grandad) and my '63 Ski Nautique will be called Ski Biscuit when she is done.

Steve, I just tried sending you an email through the site- let me know if it came through! Either way, please send me an email: TRBenj@gmail.com

Sorry for the OT!

jbear -

Presque Isle Bay over in PA. There are a couple good places to ski, but sometimes it's just too windy.

Anyone remeber Gary Hart and how his bid for president was sank when he posed for a photo with his girlfriend sitting on his lap on a boat?

The name of the boat was Monkey Busness. I thought that was a great name.

Why is it most of the time it's a women’s name on a boat? So we can blame her for being a bitch and giving us problems!! Is it we love them and we can't live with out them? I would like to call mine pack it up. But I’m scared the marine patrol will pull me over for being high!!! But what I mean is the more people the better

Sorry Steve...I could not resist.

Adam: What "bay on Lake Erie"? We skiied Sandusky Bay for quite a few years.

Dittos Pete...what a beautiful boat.

Pete, your Dunphy is georgeous. It should be in the diaries.

I remember a lot of those plywood boats on my lake when I was a kid. The Correct Crafts tended to be varnished, and I think had the nicest lines. The Chris Crafts were either painted or partially painted and varnished. I never saw a Dunphy until yours.

Totally agree. I see lots of lame named boats in the harbor, maybe one day I'll bring a notepad and write down the lamest of the lame.

Our 88 came with some fancy "B" sticker on the padded keel of the transom. Merlin (PO) called it "the cool B" or something but it got peeled off. I kind of liked it because you could only see it while you were skiing.
