    very nice
    When the sky is grey,look out to sea.
    When the waves are high and the light is dying,
    well raise a glass and think of me...
    When I'm home again,
    boys, I'll be buying!

    Even the trailer is awesome (manufacturer?) and I just noticed the reflection of the dang ramp letters in the gel coat

    Quite an achievement. Congratulations!

    What a beautiful boat. Looks like there was some serious competition.

    ----Thanks to Smidgen for the pics and thanks to all for the congrats. I was stunned as ACBS, as we know, is primarily a woody based club. They told me that my boat is the 1st fiberglass boat to ever win a "best of show" at an ACBS get-together. Hopefully a big incentive for other glass guys to show their glass boats. I had strong competition too as there were several really beautiful wood boats as well as a couple of other great other fiberglass boats. One Chris-Craft v-drive X-boat out of Pittsburgh was particularly beautiful. You can see it in front of the F-14 Donzi.......Bill S

    Nice one, I have sent some pics to Walt.
    Looks like the Suburban is back up and running. Do any sweet burnouts?

    ----Unfortunatly, that's an earlier picture at the end of last season. No Subby yet, Jeff. Damn it!!! They have done a start-up and it sounds very healthy. Working out some header problems still.....Bill S
