Mark does pic up on some cool ways to picture the boats, we that and babes.... Paul, no prob my friend... Anytime, anywhere !!! Thanks for the help Sat. You and Mike were a kick to hang with... Ended up air freighting in a starter and the damn boat fired up on the first crank... That slowness was a cooked motor coil in the damn thing, which then blew the module... Damn thing ran great the rest of the trip.. Still need a thermostat change, that's about it.. Book the room dude !!! Moj' |

Probably to early to know, but either date it falls on perhaps allyall may want to do what we did and reserve rooms for both dates, Paul - Hollywood - Johnny - Brownie and I are in at the Lakeside again, either weekend.

What the?! Paul, you are good. I just typed that about 10 mins. ago in an email.
Anyway, my preference was later in the month for personal reasons but Dave informed me the other weekends are booked with other events happening in Green Lake. Seems like July 11-13, 2008 is best. -Keith |

I changed the number of posts per page displayed (thus reducing the number of pages) to make long posts easier to read. -Keith |

Guys,
It's to soon to tell what the CofC has in store for other major groups in July of next year, but I do know that Bill, the Chamber President has us kinda pegged again for the same dates next year.. I'll try to find out more, but I would leave it the same, or book both weekends and cancel one later... It's worked for Chris and crew two years now.. Da Moj' |

holy sh*t, telephone, telegraph and tell quinner!!!!!
There's a lot of pressure for us to set a date guys but we can't do it right now. Like Keith said, odds are it will be 11-13th but book both and cancel as soon as we know. We'll be on this right after labor day. |

The 11-13th would be the best, I'm sure Wisconsin State Show Tournament in RApids is The following weekend, so try to avoid that one, I need to make it to both. Oh, and July 11th is my birthday, so that would be cool;)

Dave, Wow! I missed your post! I need to look at some Chris pictures first because I'm not to sure what would look period correct in it. Chris wasn't putting in pylons until I think the late 50's in boats like the Super Sport. I need to get my books out and check. It may need to be a fabricated item. I made mine in the Atom. |

Is there a chance in hell he could mount a ski eye to the top of the bulkhead without having the thing ripped to shreads or look stupid?? Jason really appreciates and info that can be found on retrofiitng the old 57' Thanks Much, Dave |

OK, I've been going through the pictures of the Chris Crafts in a series of books I have written by Bob Speltz called the "Real Runabouts". It's sort of the bible for old wood boat restorers as Bob spent his life putting pictures and history together. The earliest I can find a ski pull on a Chris is 1959 on their 17' ski. I called it a ski pull because they didn't use a pylon but rather a ring and finger on a short piece of pipe. This was attached to a steel frame that was bolted to the stringers at the bottom and the engine near the top. The short piece of pipe then came through a small fixed section of the top of the dog house. I don't know what they used before 59 and don't want to get into the rear lifting eye debate again! One thing for sure, they weren't pulling tubes from the eye back then! I have provided the link again to a place that handles a lot of old Century parts. Since Century was a faster boat due to it's lighter construction, it was the preferred ski boat and they were putting on more ski pulls. possible source for ring and finger |

Jason really appreciates and info that can be found on retrofiitng the old 57' Thanks Much, Dave, I'm not too keen on the bulkhead idea because it wasn't designed for it and it would see most of the load. There is a seat pad on top of the dog house that could be removed for skiing. The ring and finger could then be put through a hole in the dog house into a framework fastened to the engine and stringers. With the seat pad back on, the boat would be back to original! The frame would take some engineering and the work of a welder but that's the route I wold look at. By the way, I don't think the windshield is original because in 57 the Sportsman flat decks started using the Taylor made curved plexi. Someone a long the line may have done some "retro" work on it. I need to ask Steve!! |

Not trying to steer a date for next years GL either way, But when I tried booking a room the following weekend at the bayview, she told me they were already full due to a golf outing staying there. That would be one hotel completely already booked for the following week end. Just thought I would pass that info on.
