15 years ago today was the first post made by Keith to the CCfan forum.  Thinking about it, I'm always amazed at what the site has done for Correct Crafts and the people who have or do own them. But, I feel really amazed at the friendships that have developed because of CCfan. Thanks Keith for creating CCfan and making that first post. Now, I'm not computer savvy enough to have figured out how to find the first post. Ken told me but he wasn't savvy enough ether to find the date. Larry told him so, thanks Larry for bringing up the important anniversary. If you go to the member list and click on the "registered", the dates are reversed. Try it and it's interesting to see some of us that were here early on and many who are still with us.  ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

This is like a trip down memory lane Next topic would be the "warm, enthusiastic welcome" that the suspicious new guy gets In the link below is the "tranny man's welcome" When it was over he was definitely welcome http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4493&PN=1&title=transmission-repair" rel="nofollow - link |

If we are bringing up classic CCF threads, here is one from 2007 that changed our terminology and vocabulary forever. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8553&KW=bacerd+motor&PID=84482&title=bacerd-movin-motor#84482" rel="nofollow - http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8553&KW=bacerd+motor&PID=84482&title=bacerd-movin-motor#84482 ------------- _____________ “So, how was your weekend?” “Well, let me see…sun burn, stiff neck, screwed up back, assorted aches and pains….yup, my weekend was great, thanks for asking.” |

I found this forum when I decided to sell my Malibu and step back into the Correct Craft family again. I started with a 78 Ski Nautique in 1982 then went Malibu from 1990 to 2013. First went to PN for help on my search. Then found CCF. What a vast improvement. At least from my perspective. I like to repair nearly everything on my equipment. ( although I did let the insurance company pay for needed fiberglass work) This forum has helped with each and every question so far. Thanks Keith for establishing a first class fix and repair site that also offers some pretty great conversations along the way. ------------- |

Larry, The link to the search expired. It's happened to me too. I tried using your key words "bacerd+movin+motor " and the CCfan search didn't come up with anything. Yes, the "bacerd" did change our vocabularies! ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

It's been a good gig. Note to HW, I looked it up: It's is the contraction (abbreviated form) of "it is" and "it has." ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |

That pretty much says it all And one of the best parts of the gig has been the start to finish refurbishment/stringer replacement threads by a bunch of people over the years. They usually came looking for help/ideas and by the time they were done their projects were pretty impressive. I'd start listing them, but invariably some people would be left off so I won't list any of them. They're easy enough to find with a search. By the way Pete, you'll notice I didn't use the "restoration" word

When this thread was posted back in October 18, I made a mental note to post on my 15th anniversary, which of course Came and went (January 8, 2004) and I forgot all about it. So I am doing it now. So I joined 1/8/04. This was my first post. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=65&KW=&title=where-to-ski-in-new-england" rel="nofollow - http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=65&KW=&title=where-to-ski-in-new-england I had forgotten. I thought this was my first post. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=86&KW=&title=seeking-6669-mustang" rel="nofollow - http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=86&KW=&title=seeking-6669-mustang I didn't post again until august, when I had changed my name to "75 Tique", an unfortunate error since it was early CCF days and I had no idea there was no such thing as a 75 tique, but that's what was on the title, so what did I know. Since then, a few good memories, -Finding and bringing home my Tique from Wolfboro NH  (Originally went to look at this Al Tyll, but came home with the Tique)  -Meeting my first CCF friend to ski - Ken Spurling -Multiple ski outings in MA with Brad, Ken, Keith, Tim -Gatherings at Sokokis, Northwood, Lake George, Tim's -Beers with Brian Hall and Brian Mullin in Boston -Skiing with Dip and Brian Mullin on my home lake in MA -Much technical support from Tim, Joe, Pete, KenO, BoatDr. -Gatherings at White Lake -Periodic trips and one formal gathering at Reids, plus one trip over to meet Skutsch and hang out with him and Steve K and Reid. -Meeting Marty Mabe -A cold October outing on my lake with Reid and Adam -Finally meeting my old school comrade, JBear before a white lake gathering when he, Bill and the Monohans dropped by Seven Lakes -And subsequent Double BF runs with John just about every time we've met up since. -Other Double runs with Brad, Tim, Joe, Greg, Scott, Uncle Todd, Adam, Hollywood, there must be others -Hollywood coming to Seven Lakes for a couple outings -At this point, almost countless LLBD training outings with Greg at Badin -All 4 Badin Fest Gatherings, to date. -Getting talked into NYD Barefoot tourney (2x) -Keno's and David's generous contributions to my causes. And many more memorable times. Yup, its been a pretty good run, looking forward to another 15 years. ------------- _____________ “So, how was your weekend?” “Well, let me see…sun burn, stiff neck, screwed up back, assorted aches and pains….yup, my weekend was great, thanks for asking.” |
