I was at Shaver Lake a couple of weeks ago. Never been there before. Nice setting. I think it's not terribly far from Millerton. I didn't count but there was clearly a majority of CCs amongst the inboards on the lake. BKH |

Ok Californina is represented. Here in central California at Lake Millertn one out of every 3 inboards is a SN. All others are wannabes.

With the addition of mine now, there are 43 Correct Craft boats on this lake that is about 3 miles in circumference. |

Correct! I bought it from a guy named Dave. Funny, small world. Had to have the trans rebuilt but other than that it's been holding up great. |

Wow, what a small world!
Yes, the Maine NH border does run right through there. Actually, the majority of the lake is Maine, but I always call it New Hampshire, because that's where our side is. Yeah, it is a cool little lake. It's good for skiing too; doesn't get too choppy. Only down side is there aren't many official markers for where the shallow spots are. You just have to know or rely on the unofficial ones people have made. One guy made a funny little makeshift tombstone in honor of his propeller. Sunday nights are the best part of the weekend. I'm hoping for some weekdays off later on. It gets really quiet during the week. |

Hey Brian, A few years ago I had mine cruising around Balch. That's a pretty cool little lake. About three summers in a row, we rented a house right across the road from the marina. If I remember right, the NH/Me border went through the yard. We'd have that cove all to ourselves for the whole week! |

I wish there were more CC's around here, I know a few guys that have them but never go out. Pontoons are a good party barge!

Secord Lake in mid-Michigan. Not sure why, but the boats are either ski boats (all flavors) or Pontoons. I've got one of both.... 4th of July is crazy and the '83 stays on the hoist. Last 4th of July on one of the pontoon rides we counted 100+.

I am jealous of guys up north. I think yall got more inboards and Correct Crafts up there.
Great pic by the way on the Pontoon. My dad is thinking of buying one for the family. There great for hanging out and enjoying the afternoon. He said, you got the ski boat, when we want to go out skiing or whoever can go with you, other than that we can we swim, and float on the pontoon. Tie the pontoon and the ol nautique up and float away.. |

When I was saving for my SN, my family members used to pretend that they were each, individually, going to go out and buy pontoon boats. Just to get me heated because they knew how bad I wanted a ski boat.
If I knew pontoon boats came equipped like that, maybe I would have been alright with it :) Now I want to take my camera to the lake this weekend and try to document all of the CCs. |

I haven't counted the CCs in my town, but there are a lot. 5 out of 13 houses on my little court have CCs. Maybe I'll have to count them. If there are not at least 250, I'll be surprised. BKH

The pontoon boat thing baffles me a little bit
There are tons of them on my lake. My aunt and uncle have one and love it; I understand. It's kind of fun to put around on and see the sites. Even when they had a regular boat, they drove it slow anyway, so this suites them better. They're in their 70's so it's also nice to just step from the pier right into it. The thing that I don't understand is there are lots of young families with them too. There's one that has a huge outboard, like tournament bass boat proportions. With that motor it gets just enough speed for them to use it for tubing and knee boarding. I can't help but think they'd be much happier if they took that motor and mounted it to a bowrider-runabout instead. Edit: ... or bought a Correct Craft instead! |
