2010 Midwest Reunion Recap and Photos

Daryl,
I think I found the boat you're asking about! Dark blue? It's about a 67 - 68 Barracuda. Are you looking for one similar? If you find one that needs work, I'd like to encourage you to stay original. The blue Cuda although pretty, has many non original items. When the time comes, you've found the spot for any help you may need. CCfan is a great group with a knowledge of CC's you will not find anywhere else.

Welcome to CCfan.

I finally managed to find some time to upload pics I made at GL 2010, having some more time now, since winter is at the doorstep and boating is on hold till april... .

Hopefully Keith can use some of them to put in the slideshow...

After seeing these boats and people I would love to meet, I am planning on flying up for next yr's renuion and rent a car a drive over for the fun.

Tod,
Seeing the side by side picture, the resemblance is VERY obvious!! Great work!! At least we know your wife hasn't been "goofing" around unless you have a twin brother!! Fantastic!! I'm sorry we didn't have more time to talk with each other at GL. Even though there's plenty of hours, the hours seem to be very lean.

BTW, thanks for asking me about the diesel. Still running great on the old aftermarket fuel solenoid driver module!! I've decided to run it this way and cross my fingers!! To put the latest and greatest Stanadyne module in, the intake needs to be pulled (again!!) $500.00 is not what I want to do at the moment. Monies are flowing out at a fantastic pace for my new shop!
BTW, I'm fine with working on boats, but for some reason when it comes down to my cars/trucks, I really don't like to screw with them myself unless absolutely needed!!   

After 5 years, I'm finally posting pictures of this year's reunion.

the barefoot nautique is a 84 and all original paint!!!! i did have the color numbers written down in my wallet in case some one there needed them. that was my first trip up and really enjoyed talking and viewing all the beautiful boats, thanks for all the nice comments on my boat, looking forward to next year!!!!.

Kristof,

By the way sweet pics. Also, gun control means staying focused on the front sight and having a smooth trigger press. Once again great to meet everyone and can't wait until next year.

At first I thought Reid was mad, then I realized he was just concearned with barney.

ROFLOL James! Yes we got to the back of the crowd as fast as we could... Right after you said to me "One shouldn't put a toy like that in the hands of boys like us..."

But only a warning was issued and the Tique did manage to hit 50mph on the GPS. Been too busy to post, but it's been great to see all the pics. Too bad you all couldn't be here every weekend. Felt it was my sacrificial duty to give Barney a chance at me rather than any of you since I was likely one of the few who could pass as a "designated driver"....:) I noticed whoever it was that went down that track in front of me wasted no time ducking around out of site. Think Barney settled for a warning 'cause he knew there could be a valid argument whether it was within 100 ft. Hitting 50.3 in that rough stuff earlier was interesting.... Still would've loved a ride in that 'Stang.

LOL yes sir that was my 81 with Joel at the wheel, we saw barney coming just before he hit the lights for you. We swung a left and blended into the crowd mighty quickly. Parked it way in the back behind those fast orange boats.

I believe that I specifically remember him telling me that the paint was original and not repainted. That was the cleanest 80s CC I have ever seen by a long shot.

Larry,
That is Mike and Gail Hunter's Orange 210 rig. Even the dog had Orange painted nails !!!! I hope someone got that rig alone as it would be a great calendar pic !!!

Moj'

That BFN sure is purdy.

While we're recapping some photos of the event, have I been living under a rock, or was last week the first unveiling of this rig. If so, must have been hard keeping that a secret. Very nice.
