Brian I well post once I get off work.

The 16' boats had dark green from the factory. I have the copies of the catalog that state that. Those boats are a little different than the rest of the line.

I am looking to redo the interior in my GarWood quick befor my wedding but I'm having trouble finding a source for marine leather. I need the hunter green color.

I haven't received my issues of the mag have tried to contact bill but received no response?

Think about it this way for people not renewing memberships....people tend to get fed up with not receiving the magazine on time....thats one of the biggest problems there's not really any club events for us to attend so other then the magazine and the forum what else is the club offering? Like I sa...

Hershey PA vedor set up is today...swap is Wednesday-Saturday this week...it's the worlds largest swap meet if you walk the whole thing it totals 44miles....9500 vendor spaces 1100 car corral spaces...it'll take you a good 3 days and you still won't see it all

Anybody out there heading to the Hershey swap meet? Great place for vintage boat parts and advertising...usually it's cheaper too...saw a couple half-mile ray spotlights last year...we well be in spaces oba 13-19 one of the spaces in there if your going stop by and talk boats just look for the guy i...

More feature boats in each issue...the car clubs I belong to all feature at least 5 different cars in every issue....those are the articles I read first in brass bell...if we had that and maybe some how to articles and some show coverage articles...I have 5 friends that were part of the club and the...

I agree with the destinations idea

I'm looking for information on the 1936 National Boat show at the Grand Central palace in NYC. I'm looking for ads, posters anything advertising wise, and Gar Wood related to the show. If anyone has anything please let me know

It'll be at the EB Morgan house and the Aurora Inn in Aurora NY

No drifting the wedding is at an old house there...we are taking the boats out after

It's going to be on Cayuga lake in New York so it well be all legal

That's awesome...we are having 10 runabouts there...instead of a yacht ensign he's running one that says just married...this is going to be in the finger lakes next fall but were trying to come up with odd different ideas that would be a good 1930s feel as the place they are getting married is an 18...

looking for some wooden boat wedding ideas for a friends wedding we are going to have actual boats there just seeing what others have done

i have a graphic designer that would donate time to designing some t-shirts and can probably get a company to donate screen printing and t-shirts...if notill put the money up

Stovebolt I was curious if you were on the hamb

I would definitely like to see some new stuff in the club store...t-shirts and hats with some nice logos I think would sell...when I wear a Chris craft shirt I always get asked about it what better way to promote the club

Not that I can post...copyrights

Sounds good I actually just finished a 1941 Ford Woody for a client who uses it to tow a 37 Chris craft we took some amazing shots at his lake house...he has a 100' conCrete dock and his Chris craft was offset in the picture with them unloading the camping and fishing gear from his 30s Waco float pl...

Keep in mind the $4,000 I'm spending goes out 12 times a year with a distribution of 70,000 copies a month....I was just using it as an example....but if you expand the magazine a little and take on a couple more advertisers and increase the ad price slightly...it could pay for a big chunk of advert...

I need a new Gar Wood burgee for my 16' that I just purchased does anyone know where to get one?

I also need to get ahold of Tony Mollica if anyone has his contact info?

Thirdly is there still an active Gar Wood society? If so is there contact info for them?

Well I guess my big question is what do our two sponsors do for the club...we need to see a total cost analysis....where all the monies come from....like advertising...I know the magazines I advertise in a full page ad is $4000 a year..half page is $2000 and so on....if advertisers stepped up there ...

Same here I like the hard copy...if the club magazine was online only I probably wouldn't renew my membership. That mailed mag is one of the reasons I'm with the club...like I said in another thread....expand the club store...if we got some other stuff in there I'd buy it....also for some fund raisi...

If I go it will be as a spectator. GREAT show but not worth me setting up at.

you were set up there last year werent you? If i have some things i need could you bring them if you go there?

i think we should know the state of the club as well if we need cash to get this published and out there are members like me who are willing to donate to the club to get it going...id donate money to get more then 4 issues a year if we could get a monthly mag going that would be awesome...what can w...

I agree the day I get my renewal notice in the mail I write the check and send it in...I get where you're coming from with it I know our money publishes the magazine.

I've been looking for mine too and still haven't seen it been a little curious about it
