I am looking to go the the Green Lake Reunion this year for the first time. I am looking for a room for my family. Anyone have any good ideas where to stay or have a room that they don't need? Please let me know! Thanks. ------------- mailto:skierbrant@aol.com - Brant Augensen http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1536&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1989&yrend=1989 - My 89 Nautique |

Brant, There will be room for you and your family, maybe not real close but just make plans to come and enjoy.
We have booked a year in advance for a spot at the Hattie Sherwood Campground. This will be Mission Control for the event. There are those too that have to have a room, Wife , Kids Or the Dog , and if this be the case they are available. Look forward to meeting all the newbies that show up this year, so WELCOME in advance.............Boat dr/ Boat nurse ------------- boat dr /diaries/details.asp?ID=4631 - 1949 Dart /diaries/details.asp?ID=1533 - 1964 American Skier |

Hi Brant,
Good, to hear you're going to come have some fun with us. The hotels in the area can be found by going to the GL CofC. www.greenlakecc.com Many of the hotels will be booked, but there are plenty of B&B's and cottages also in the area... Fear not, there will be a place to rest your head !!! Moj' ------------- 05' SV211 TE 73' Martinique had:96' SNOB had:76' Nautique had 77 Tique |

Magic,
Great footage, lots of great memories.. The bar has been set a bit higher each year. Glad it has always come out to a memorable time for all. I remember the efforts/hassles from the first year. What a great time. Please give yourself a huge pat on the back bud, because without your involvement, we wouldn't be where we are today... That goes for your lovely bride... I hope Todd and Renee come back again as well as all the vetran reunioners. You're right, GL09' is really stacking up to be a great experience. If anyone is on the fence, screw it and come out. This get together is guaranteed to be the best, most relaxing/fun weekend you could have with your family and beloved Correct craft/Nautique. There will be things to do for the skier, non skier, and kids alike.. We're not done yet too. More to come, so keep checking back for updates on additions to the weekend... Come on lurkers... Come on Midwesterners... Time to register !!! Moj' ------------- 05' SV211 TE 73' Martinique had:96' SNOB had:76' Nautique had 77 Tique |

Have been contemplating a trip to the US taking in the CCfan GL reunion(it was on my bucket list). It will depend on a few things falling into place with work commitments.
The wife has always wanted to go to NY for Xmas. But I have managed to persuade her that it would be much better to do NY & Niagara in your summer. Planning to hire a car or camper and drive from NY depending on the daily cost of the camper. How long would it take to get from NY to GL taking a scenic tourist route? Would 3 days be long enough? Just after a route that would see a bit of countryside without taking to long. After GL when we have a bit more time plan to go via Niagara and any other sights that may be worth seeing before getting back to NY to do the tourist bit. I assume this time of year is your peak holiday season? Are the prices of accommodation etc really excessive at this time? Just starting to plan itinerary and need a bit of advice. This will be our third trip to US but the last one was over 15 years ago when we drove from California to Orlando. It was a great trip with lots of great memories. ------------- If you're going through hell, keep going http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2999" rel="nofollow - 89 Ski <a href="http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=5685" ta |

Wow Mark, you are planning a great trip and one you will remember for many years to come.
You could spend 3 days or 3 weeks traveling between NY and GL. There is plenty to see and enjoy in the Northeast and Midwest. I think it would be best to define the days you want to spend and then pick the important places for the available days. As for the Camper, http://www.cruiseamerica.com/ - Cruise America is a great place to start. You will be looking at about $100 per day for the unit and then $20-$25 per night at the campgrounds. You can use http://www.koa.com/ - KOA for reference for campgrounds. But there are many other local campgrounds that are as good or better. When you decide what city to spend the night, then search for campgrounds in the area. As for Hotels instead of campgrounds, you can get specials in may chains with stays. Ex.. stay 2 days and get 3rd day free. You would want to check out places like Days Inn and Red Roof Inn or Holiday Inn just a examples. you are looking at $50+ per night for 2. I have been fortunate enough to get to go to Australia twice for work. 1st time was for 3 months in Chatswood, just north of Sydney. Cathie and I loved it. We rented a car and went different places each weekend. My AIM mail is listed in my Profile. Please contact me with any questions and I, and many others, will help anyway that I can with your possible trip. Hope to see you in GL...  ------------- 1980 Ski Nautique 1966 Barracuda |

Thanks for your reply Roger will get in contact with you via email.
I was born at the North Sydney and my father worked in the Chatswood area for 25 years. Have since moved on I much prefer country lifestyle. But the northern suburbs of Sydney around the beaches is a beautiful place just to many people for me. ------------- If you're going through hell, keep going http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2999" rel="nofollow - 89 Ski <a href="http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=5685" ta |

Mark, and to all the other newly registered owners we've not really heard from,, it's great to see so many new people sign up for GL09'. Take a moment and get your boats in the diaries so we have a picture of your craft. Not only is it cool to see everyones boats (because we do love pics)but because they are actually made part of the boat show ballot that we use when voting for our favorites.
Mark, we'll be pulling for you to make it over from "down under". And for anyone else that needs any help with some unanswered questions about the area, lodging, gas, food, etc, please don't be shy in asking. It's going to be a great time for you and your families... Moj' ------------- 05' SV211 TE 73' Martinique had:96' SNOB had:76' Nautique had 77 Tique |

Additionally, Moj', the diary image is used to make the commemorative ID badges. In the past, if we didn't have an image, we used the "N" Nautique logo.
This year, we'll substitute another picture, like: Ski-Cuda The boat with a wooden tower the Batman boat Wild-Man (pre-62Wood) or ... Quinner.

Managed to get a room at the Lakeside from 16th-19th. My wife is a bit worried it is a boys weekend but I keep telling her all their wives/girlfriends will be there also.
It is only 10 weeks away. Really looking forward to meeting all the CCFan members in person. This forum is amazing how it can bring people together with similar interests. It will be great to see such a collection of old & new Correct Crafts. ------------- If you're going through hell, keep going http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2999" rel="nofollow - 89 Ski <a href="http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=5685" ta |

Lewy, I'm looking forward to meeting you. You're going to have a great time. I don't like to leave the State of Maine, especially during our very short summer, but I've had such a good time at the 2 reunions I've been to and the CCF people I've met are such decent people, that I'm driving what seems to me like half way across the Earth to a place I would otherwise never go to. It's going to be a blast and your wife will enjoy herself.

Dang, Guess Kim and I might have to fly up for the weekend as well. 
Lewy, Mrs. Foot had the same doubts about hanging out with a slew of boat fanatics at the river run but after meeting Mrs. Buffalo and some of the other Mrs. she was glad she came. Already have plans to return next year to the St. Johns. I've run the idea by her as we do not have our girls this weekend and she is savy to it as long as we aren't dragging the boat with us. Boat Doc has been... "Given me the Business" every time we chat about going so may just have to break down and head up there. GEE.... anybody know if we might be able to bum a ride off somebody?

You may want to call the campground as I think that they are reporting that they are Full. But some are doubling-up on sites.

Green Lake Campgroud is supposed to be nice. It think that it may be farther away from the Park and Goose Blind than Hatties.
I think that the majority are trying to stay at Hatties. But as I mentioned, it may be Full now. I would offer a section of our site but we are in a motorhome and it pretty much fills the site. They are not big sites. ------------- 1980 Ski Nautique 1966 Barracuda |

Kangaroo's are our national animal in Australia even appear on our Coat of Arms. But out here in the country Roo's are a pest to the farmers especially in drought conditions. They are a constant problem when driving at night as their eye's do not brighten with the car headlights. City people just see the cute cuddly side of them. They can be domesticated but a fully grown male roo can be very aggresive.

Tim: Maybe we should talk. Any way to have us catch a plane in Orlando with an Atlanta stop-over to meet up with you and Kim? Me and Patti have a room if you need a place to bunk. Could share a rental car as well. Always looking to cut expenses these days. You go...you won't be sorry! You got my number?

Yeah John sounds like we need too! Yep I still have your #. You might be better off flying direct if you can. If you have no choice but stopping here Atl then we could possibly ride up with you on the same flight if its a Delta or Northwest flight.
Hey you midwest guys! Which would be the better airport in and out of, Madison or Appleton? ------------- "Morfoot; He can ski.

Tim,
Appleton is probably closest, Milwaukee is about 1.5hrs drive, Madison would be about the same or slightly less. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1143" rel="nofollow - Mi Bowt |

Tim, Depending on the departure point airport, going into Madison and especially Appleton could put you on a relatively small commuter type route. These can get expensive!!

Spoke with Keith yesterday and he's trying to book a flight to Milwaukee on Thursday morning.

Guys, I see the totals adding up nicely... Only 7 more boats to catch last year's registration figures... @ 10 more boats we hit 40 !!!!
This is a world wide attended event. Now put the wheels back on your rusty little trailers and register for your summer fun in Green Lake. The goal is {{{{{{40}}}}}}} "Just-do-It" Moj' ------------- 05' SV211 TE 73' Martinique had:96' SNOB had:76' Nautique had 77 Tique |

We should be able to hit 50. Where's Gary Hein and his friend Brian? Did anyone contact Dave (Copcraft), he's missed in the past due to an annual trip to lake of the ozarks. With the schedule change, he can probably make it.

Brian, I'll add one more to the list. We've had quite a few people email me asking if I was bringing the Hurricane so we've decided to tow it up for the weekend. It's no work of art like the Dart but atleast folks will be able to get a before and after look of it. It is a piece of history no matter what shape it's in so it'll be there. ------------- |

Allan looking forward to seeing not only your pristine 81 but now the Hurricane that is a bonus. Only nine weeks but whose counting.
Flying into Milwaukee on the 14th will be leaving for Green Lake after lunch on the 16th if anyone needs a lift from Milwaukee Airport let me know. Looks like National have the best deal for me with drop off charge of $200 for leaving the car in New York at end of trip.

While they haven't signed up yet, I know we've got at least two more boats/parties coming with our group. So this'll get us to at least 32 boats. Plus Marshall just told me he's working his travel plans to be there for a 3rd time and commandeered his own boat back since he couldn't make it to FLA in Feb and had to send a stand-in driver with his boat. And I've been ribbing him since then on boatdr's boat being a MPH faster (at that outing). And speaking of speed, will there by chance be the trophies/plaques for "Fastest Boat on GL" like Mark made up for FLA? ------------- ReidP /diaries/details.asp?ID=231&yrstart=1971&yrend=1975 - 1973 Mustang |

Hi there Dave! In terms of boats coming to GL, the only certainty is that Orange Crush will be there. Beyond that we just don't know as several new projects are continuing to sit idle as work has really gotten in the way. But 920 miles is a long way to come to get embarrassed, don't you agree? ------------- ReidP /diaries/details.asp?ID=231&yrstart=1971&yrend=1975 - 1973 Mustang |

It was for reid's 73 that made me like that type of boat. And I know he will never sell it to me. So, I started to look for one and I found this gem. Man the owner kept this boat looking new and stored it very carefully over the years. So thank Reid for showing me the way.....
