85nautiquematt - 3 lakes

85, I wanted to start a new thread so we don't hijack the GL Barney report!! I spent everyone of my summers in 3 Lakes so I too have many good memories and since I do have a second home on Medicine and Spirit lakes continue to build the good memories. The summers ended over 30 years ago when I had to go to work and earn a living but like I've said, one of these days I'll be up there for good.
In the late 60's and early 70's I worked at Watercraft Sales and is one place that stirred my interest in Correct Crafts and wood boats. It was also during that time that I was a member of the Aqua Devils ski club. Now my son has replaced me at Watercraft and is going on his 7th summer I believe. My son and daughter have also taken my place with the Aqua Devils and are 10 year members.
I spent many a hour at Pine Isle as well but probably consuming more beverages that eating! The 2nd bay heading north on Long lake tells me you were probably on the east side (hi-way X) as the west side really doesn't have much of a bay. When were you up there last? Your dad's friend with the Chris Craft, do you know if he belongs to a club or is it perhaps one of the ACBS chapters?
