I was hoping for some wiggle room in your response, but there's none! And we were all looking forward to seeing that BFN. Next year!

Ok guys no picking on Tim for not making both reunions this project on the 79 foot has alot more detail to do then a normal wood stringer job. It took my father and myself 7 months to do our 85 ski with the same coosa so that joeny inspired our project. I would have been bringing both the 85 and the 2008 to the reunion but no work coverage that weekend. I am going to talk to a few to try and have a day get together on lake zoar or lillinoah sometime in September if we can plan who can't make this reunion.
I have been up in lake George all this week and been out every morning by 6am skiing and footing on the glassy waters. Ttyl Phil I |

Ha, no wiggle room Bruce- that weekend is 100% out for me.
Phil, like I said, it wasnt the BFN project that's keeping me from the reunions- just too much else going on for GL (primarily work) and I have a schedule conflict for NE. I saw that I missed your call over the weekend... shoot me an email if it was something important! Spending a day on Zoar/Lillinoah in Sept is definitely a possibility. |

Haven't been to Poor Peoples' for a few years. My BIL goes there every few weeks for a burger. I was at Big Daddy's two weeks ago watching a friend's band play. That place is less than 5 minutes from our camp.
One never knows what that kid is up to. I've seen him around alittle more the last few weeks on the water.I'm working on him to get over there.
Tying the knot that weekend Timmy ?? Sounds like you're going thru an extreme life makeover down there. Won't be the same w/o you & the fam around this year.
I can arrange for a bomb scare* at work that weekend Phil if that helps Mike * disclaimer, if that actually happens, it wasn't me. I'm joking.... obviously |

Tim can't make it, But since it is for a bachelor party Melissa should still be free to attend.. does she want me to pick her up on the way through or is she planning to pull up a boat?

Ha, I dont doubt for a second she'd take you up on that, Joe. Pretty sure she picked up work hours that weekend, but Ill run it by her. She is checked out on the towing, but Im not sure her car is rated enough to pull the BFN.

Bruce- will you be bringing the Classic, Mustang or both?
Phil- sorry you can't make it this year either. Maybe we can hook up the following weekend somewhere? Good luck with the new garage project- that thing is gonna be sweet! Keith- We'll bring all sorts of ski gear for whatever craziness ensues.I'd love to be a part of the pyramid- possibly a base if we have another 6+ footer to match up..but that would put the top guy about 6 feet off the water- whoooaaa. This is shaping up to be a great reunion fellas. Can't wait! btw- I'm holding off on making a camp site reservation. Anyone else making reservations yet? |

Brad- I'm 6'2 and could be a base as well for a nice tall pyramid.
Also I was wondering the same thing about camp site registrations.is there a plan to register in a certain area or? |

Tim, Someone may have already asked, but what about your mom and dad coming up? They're way cooler than you are anyway . Laurie, Boaty, Skipper and myself are gonna make the trip, and I'm crossing my fingers and seeing if i can convince any others to take the plunge. |

Sorry Tim can't make it but that does open up the chances for the rest of us to win something!

Brad, we are bringing the Mustang. It'll be all complete including the wet sanding. We are waiting to hear where people are staying before we make a reservation. Maybe that topic can get going?
Tim, you could change your plans. One of my guys had long range plans to go to some country fest at Gillete that weekend and bailed. He said his friends know boats come first. Tim, only kidding. I know it's a bachelor party and you no doubt are a key player. You will be missed. |

While we are on that subject.... Will NH honor MA tags or do we need to get a NH registration like with snowmobiles?

valid other states reg for up to 30 consecutive days
per pg 24 NH boaters guide bigger ? does max 2 skiers apply to pyramid building exercise so long as it works guessing you'd get applause rather than ticket |

I wouldn't read that book or worry about any of that stuff. We're getting a pass for the weekend.

When we lived in our previous house in N. Berwick I used to take my boat to Mousam to bomb around because it was the closest lake. Mousam's a popular one. Nice things about Mousam are the mom and pop convenience store on the water with gas pumps, and the beach, usually with "scenery". :) Used to be the "hot dog lady" on the beach every day, selling hot dogs in her bikini, but I think some fat female town board members who are uncomfortable with their own bodies put a stop to that. Can't have attractive women walking around in bikinis, now, can we? To me PPP is only good for pizza or sub take-out. Entrees suck and the service is probably the worst I've ever experienced. After eating there 5 or 10 times I decided it's not worth it. The last time I "dined" in, after waiting forever for our waitress so I could ask for another drink for my daughter so she could choke down her cardboard nuggets, I see our waitress sitting at one of the tables with her buddies drinking beer. No more service for us, I guess. It was one of the only times in my life I left no tip whatsoever. They're lucky I paid for the sorry excuse of a meal. But their pizza and subs are excellent. The food and service at Big Daddys didn't do much for me either (except that the waitresses were mostly pretty hot), but I haven't been there in a few years, maybe it's better now. They do have a nice bar with pool tables, I'll give 'em that! I haven't registered yet because right after I said "woohoo- I'm there", I found out I may not be able to make it. :( Is there a deadline? Looks like a blast! |

Hey Guys,
I'm working on getting permits for a slalom course and 'show skiing'. I'm also working on 14-day temp boat safe certificates for those who don't have them. We're go for Epsom Valley Campground (603-736-9758). Tell them you're with CorrectCraftFan and you'd like to stay with the group in the Safari Area. - Keith |

Slalom Course
That should be fun. My brother and I have been kinda competing, but it's all been very subjective so far. This should be a fun opportunity. |

Event Update:
We are applying for a slalom course permit and should have one for the reunion. There is no speed limit on Northwood Lake (so no issue with the fastest boat competition) Marine patrol goes out on the lake once a day and uses the private launch at MacCallum's Boathouse so we'll be well aware when they are on the water. The NH state law does require a Safe Boater Education Certificate. For those who do not have one of these certificates and you are interested in getting one, take the Florida Boating Exam. The exam is completely online, the cost is $29.95 and you only pay if you pass. You get an instant printable certificate and then a card will be sent to you in the mail. This Florida Boating Exam is NASBLA certified and accepted in NH (along with 48 other states) and may provide you with discounts on your boat insurance. -Keith |

Hey Guys,
Here is a markup of the special 2011 Ski Nautique 200 MacCallum's Boathouse ordered for the Northeast Reunion. The 2011 colors are not yet available through Nautique.com's 'Built It' function but this is a close representation. It will be Victory Red, Silver Metal Flake and a Silver Cloud hull: -Keith |

Keith, I'm looking forward to skiing behind that boat!
I took and passed the FLA exam. It's a about a half hour exam that most experienced boaters ought to be able to answer most of the questions. You need to get 80% of the 60 questions correct. The questions that were tough for me pertain to FLA law or questions about boating in the ocean. If anyone is worried about not having a boating certificate, it's a convenient way to get one. It takes 2-3 weeks to receive the actual card, so don't wait too long to take the exam if you want one. |
