I didn't take a camera for the first time, so here are some phone pics.
I was number 21 and Shaun behind my boat |

Oh, Quinner, you bitter, cynical, sarcastic old fart. Get with the times. You just don't appreciate the thrill, exhilaration and excitement of screaming down the lake at 10 miles an hour, honing your skills at something Hollywood's dog could do,

Actually that is what you need to be a talent less sally thirfer sissy pants however you still need to either swamp a vintage inboard, ruin all ski-able water on the lake, destroy a slalom course or wash out someones pier and shoreline to truly be considered one of their own. |

Wait....I don't get it. I though you had to have a $200k boat with a $20k stereo to wakeboard behind. Rob |

How many billions of skiers were pulled by old CCs that had no pylon? Best I can tell, there are no giant piles of old CCs stacked up anywhere that were destroyed because of it.

Way to go Chris, had to point it out. I saw it but figured I'd give him a pass!
I believe his Skylark lacks a pylon, and I would have done exactly as Marty did, don't pass up an opportunity like this! It's just little Shaun Murray, how much lateral stress could he generate? |

I agree, loved seeing him behind the narrow hulls. Curious how it feels from his end to jump off a G boat and then get pulled by a Mustang.
Looked like Marty's Skylark was the oldest boat there? Did he pull Shaun? |

I did have a good excuse but I know two CCFan ladies Uhhhh Hmmm Heather AND Vandygayle) were there who have REALLY nice cameras and they failed.
I can tell that both Gerry and Dawnald aren't into the wakeboard scene as it's Shaun! |

Gary, The PN guys were also invited to the event with Shawn. They also invited the locals since there is such a large population on White Lake of Nautiques / Correct Crafts. They final number was 46. None of us took on the task of taking photo's as such. We were too busy having fun. I blame Morfoot, the office photographer of CCFAN for not coming. He did have a good excuse. Donald |

Why do you have to go to PN's site to find pictures of the pulls?
Was a record set? How many? A camera should have been set up taking a picture of every boat with Shaun behind it. A major marketing faux pas OOPS ! 51 years young still pulling and setting records |

Thanks Donald for the shout out for the tow of shame. Thank goodness that electrical gremlin surfaced late in the day, it had come and gone another time with us not getting the chance to chase it. Unfortunately it came back during a tune up lesson that Tim Benjamin and Dave Hart were giving me (we didn't have a VOM or test light on the water to track it down so a tow was in order). Thanks to Mark and Patrick (Team PCM) for finding the elec issue quickly on dry land. And Tim stepped up Sunday morning and gave a tutorial on points and setting timing before hitting the road for his long trip back to CT. I had a great time and learned a lot, and of course saw old friends and met new ones. Hope to see you all at Badin later this year if not sooner.

This fun weekend would of been a bummer if it was not for the quick actions of the CCFAN TEAM EXTERMINATOR to remove a mouse that had been on choppy water on White Lake in Tom Hart's new to him Skier all Friday afternoon. Pop Corn was used to lure the little critter before he bit Tom between the legs during the day on Saturday. NO RATS WERE HARMED during the event. This fun was going on as Team Safe-Lite was hard at work just a few feet away. If you look closely, you can see the little fellow half in and half out of the blue air scoop. The mouse stated that he did not want to go to Maine with the boat due to the harsh winters.
