Hi out there,

I went to the Inland Nautical Society's regatta today; beautiful day, great turn out (51 registered skippers, over 65 boats). A good time was had by all. Pictures are not in any order, there are a mix of finished and works in progress

Here are a few more pic's.

The Thompson Trawler is a beauty..I tried to purchase Two ..but Dumas had sold them all out years ago ..She's almost as rare as Darby ..

You convinced me... it's time for me to move back to California.

Hey Goon, great photos. Riverside, thats just east of Goonland, right? Wish I could have made it there. Yours truly............

What a great gathering of beautiful models and some obviously happy people. The venue looks super with lots of calm water and nice shade trees. I think my favorite is the Mud River tug and the Pristine Salvage barge. Too bad they had to scrap the 57 Chevy and the 57 Ford. I'm a junker by nature and that set fits me to a tee. Did I see an old VW in there too? I'll give ya 2k for it right now. Ha! Great pics Goon. Thanks for posting them.
Almost forgot the steam boat with the alligators onboard. Looks like some of my old friends down in Everglades City back in the old days when Gators were protected. Now there are so many of them you can buy a license to hunt them. Pete

Who's been crashing planes into the lagoon?

Great pics Mark !!!!

The crashed plane is one of the course markers; they've used it for years

Thanks for the kind words about the pic's; seeing all the boats gives me inspiration to get of my a## and go in the garage and work on something.

I like it, different.

Gotta love "The Minnow". Thanks for posting Mr.Goon.

Excellent photo show, Mark! You have blown your cover. From now on I expect to see a camera in your hand at Hansen Lake!

Great shots Mark. Thanks for sharing. Lots of big ones out today.

It just proves that if I take enough pictures, some have to be good!
