Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

'Twas a wonderful day, no doubt about it. Great pics Craig.

Great pic Craig, looks like you might be in for a new career, it may have been a little low on water but was still a great spot.
Great work by our hosts, loved the wall to wall memories in the club house.

Yes fantastic day, 5 skiffs in a row, rear seat hydro's, wonderful 63 Seacraft, Bad boat.
Chance to do some circle work. Then great company, and the Glenmaggie Club embracing its history with a fantastic display, but also opening a brand new clubhouse which will serve them well into the future. Congratulations to the GDBC! We were made to feel amazingly welcome!

Shhh, Belinda took all the photo's....................new club photographer I reckon!

Here's one she couldn't get Craig

Thanks heaps mate....we were hoping someone got one of ours.

Great Day for the Club , 60 years and the display of Wooden boats was fantastic to see on the foreshore were 100,s of Wooden race boats have lined up over the years as demonstrated by the many great photos on display in the Club House , raises the question once again , "where are they now" ? Good to meet the Club members who were present.

It was great to be invited to the GDBC and play a role in their 60 year celebrations. This type of the club is the home of grass roots powerboat racing these days and to their credit they have embraced their history. Wonderful people in East Gippsland and so many good memories of both big and small powerboat events at this venue. Thanks guys for the effort and thanks for having us. We had a ball and met up with some really nice racing people. (Rebound went well too.)

Just arrived home safe and in one piece. Would like to thank GDBC for their invite and the way they made us feel welcome, also all the people who put their pride and joy's on display. Was a real hoot to get out and drive around with other like minded people whether they be in skiffs, hydro's or immaculate runabouts. To me it just reinforces why we spend so many weekends and nights in our sheds covered in sawdust, oil or both. Bring on the next event!!! By the way, any fisho's who might be thinking of somewhere to drop a line, you could do worse than Glenmaggie. Spent yesterday slow trolling the lake perimeter ( not in Pagan, the fish couldn't keep up) and caught 9 lovely Bass and a Reddie. The water was like glass and the evening warm......postcard stuff!!

Here's the link to the best of the video footage we could edit and publish.
Crank your volume up!
