A CCF Poem
by Blake Kudzal (a.k.a. 'Little Godfather') - age 8 (harddock's son). Read to everyone at the Saturday Night Banquet:

      One day a man named Keith with a computer had a plan
      To have a site designed for a true Correct Craft fan

      Where any fan is encourage to join them
      With access to reference, sales, parts and a forum

      Discuss stuff about boats, life, or how & where to ski
      You can share your pictures and story on CCF's diary

      Having reunions for fans to gather and show
      Beautiful Correct Craft boats designed to tow

      You can find a boat to buy, rebuild, or just tune
      Even get a chance to meet Mr. Ralph Meloon

      Members from all over the world become friends like a family of brothers and come here to roam
      Thanks Keith for CorrectCraftFan, a site better than all the others, the one we call home

Thank you Blake!!!

Sometimes, nothing gets any better than seeing it through the eyes of a child!

GREAT STUFF!

Thanks Blake, and thanks Keith for sharing it for those who weren't there to hear it first hand.

Had a great time all weekend. I might of had too good a time on Sat. night - lol. Still feeling it today a little.

Was fun getting our boat airborne with everyone screaming in the back seat. going for max speed. (49.1 mph - official) ;)

Don't know how I would've done in a race to 45 mph.

Not a wakeboarder but the pro was cool to watch.

The 200's wake is non-existent even if the waves on LG were much bigger than it.

Trying to find good water on Friday morning - gave Keith a crappy pull off his boat. Not used to the newer boats, I suck as a driver - lol.

I would like to see a pic of the sign, Joe and I got busted changing it was strongly suggested that we put it back. I heard someone did change it later that evening. I don't think they'll have a room for me next year.

Long live the cranky Harley riding Wild Hogs and their Toyota Scion of rockin' biker music. (Elton, Wang Chung, etc.) lol

Wow, what a great weekend! As always, it was too darn short- wish I had a little more time to talk to a few more folks. It was great seeing old friends and new faces alike! A special thanks to Phil and Reid for carting my butt all over the lake on Sunday, and for the sweet pulls on the 206. Its been said before, but its true- the boats were awesome but its the people that make these events so great. Top notch all around!

Cant wait til next year, but hope to see many of you before that one way or another!

It was a great weekend. So good to see old friends and meet new ones. I still cannot get over what Keith creating this site has done.

I noticed those Harley people weren't too friendly, but didn't give it much thought as I was having such a good time. I wish I had known about their music and the sign. Somebody post what the sign said!

Tim and Hollywood, I didn't know you guys did a dock start off THAT house. You guys are hot sh**s.

Tom & Dave had a great weekend. They really like the whole thing, especially meeting everyone.

And, going to the breakfast with Ralph Meloon was a real treat. When 2 boys ages 15 and 18 can sit for an hour and listen to a 92 year old man talk, in a room that over looks a calm lake while their boat is waiting for them, it is a good indication of what a very interesting man he is.

Here's the first group of pictures.

Dave & Tom got some great barefooting lessons Sunday morning from Brad & Cheeny.


Brad makes barefooting look so easy.

Looks like an awesome time had by all... At least the sun came out this year, despite the cold... Maybe Keith can dial this back in during the summer months... 30 some degrees in the morning ??? Brrrr...

Where's the chatter about the new Nautique?? Is it "not" all that impressive, or what??

What were the "words of wisdom" by Mr. Ralph??

Funny about sharing the hotel with a "HOG" chapter... Didn't Ken welcome the posse with some Cha-din-ay ??.. Where is Ken, did they stick him in a locker somewhere and you all forgot about him? LOL..

I'm really glad that there were fans that signed up late and made a reunion of it.. The numbers were scary right up before D-day...

Congrats Keith on another successful year in the coordination and execution of a couple of excellent events... Onward to next year...

It was cold in the morning, but it got really nice by noon, and the water was warm. I'd give the weather a 9. It was better than last year.

The 200 is a sharp boat. I'm sure there will be some good reviews when people that skied behind get time to post.

Heck, it was warmer than Green Lake this year! With the exception of the wind on Fri and Sun afternoon, no complaints here.

Keith,

(a.k.a "Little Godfather")   now that is SWEET...

Great family all around....

To have him read that poem to the fans, that was the best part of the event...

Keith,


I think it's time to hand down my name to Blake. "Little Godfather"

And I would like you to change my name to "The One" on my screen name.

It is the perfect time to do so...   Thank you

I think everyone would agree....

Did anyone mention yet what a great event is was and how everyone had such a wonderful time? Definitely created some lasting memories.
Laurie and I both rank it up there with the best thus far, and with word already out that next yr's event is moving several doors down to the better-suited Georgian resort, it'll be even better, plus they allow dogs. Boaty and Skipper are stoked!

Special thanks to Tim and his clan for all the time and effort they put in to our new-to-us '65 Tournament Skier which I saw for first time in person Fri nite. My jaw dropped in delight when it pulled in as it looked like Fido's butt in the first picts. And when we fired up that old Ford big block in the parking lot it scared the hell outta those Harley guys! Still got lots of work to do on her, but with this tank we probably won't be needing the pontoon rentals any more.

Patricia and I had an awesome time. We got to meet new friends and catch up with old ones. Mr. Ralph was the highlight in my opinion, then the 200. It drove like no other boat. This was the first time I skied in 45 degree weather, but it was worth it. The 200 has no wake, just a stick of butter with some suds.

Good time!

Dave,

Patricia and I had a great time hanging out with you and your wife. We might come to Florida in February. I'd like to taste some of Champagnes home cooking!

Tim,

It was great seeing all your family again. You all have quite a collection of Correct Crafts. Loved your new trailer for the '90. Your BFN is a machine. Very nice find. I enjoyed talking to your Mom and Dad. They're some cool parents!

Hey Eric, I have your rope. I saw it on the dock when I got back from log bay sunday. Brad and I figured it was yours but didn't know how to get a hold of you. Give me a call @ 518-527-3620 and let me know where you would like me to ship it to.
