Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

For what it is worth, I think that powerboats will now get a reasonable crack at this event, provided of course that the organisers deliver on their undertakings. I have entered Turbo Fire and because I do have a water pump fitted, I will participate in the grand parade (5 knots) on Saturday morning...

For a genuine & original Chris Craft in that condition $60k is a very fair & reasonable cost. You could spend that and more restoring it - a wreck at sub $20k sounds cheap, but a complete boat at $60k sounds expensive.... go figure!

We'll be there on Friday but will unfortunately be a little too late for the Parade of Sail. What time is the Blast of Power scheduled for Mr Chivs?

Who is heading south this year? There is a small group from Bairnsdale heading down so Brenda & I are looking forward to catching up with members again.

Looks good Greg - I'll take one (non-autographed version please) - should I just transfer $20 + postage into the club account?

Hi guys - glad to say that my refund cheque turned up yesterday. How can something so simple take so long?

I reeceived a call back yesterday to ask for my address (again) saying that they would post me a cheque. When (if) it turns up I'll let you all know.
