Got an email fro Dane about up coming events ...

Hi Gregg,

I hope that you're doing well. There was a question about Shipwreck Boat Repair on the CGOAMN forum this week and this was perfect timing for some upcoming events put on by the Bob Speltz Land O Lakes Chapter of the ACBS.

Dave Bortner is the President of the local Chapter BSLOL-ACBS and he would like to extend an invitation to CGOAMN members to attend one or both of the upcoming Winter Workshops. Both of these events should be of interest to CGOAMN members. Saturday March 10th is at Shipwreck Boat Repair at the Dresser Wisconsin location. There are currently a couple Glastrons in their shop. Here is the event announcement from the BSLOL ACBS website. This is a good opportunity to see how Shipwreck approaches boat repair and there is plenty of opportunity to ask questions.

Doors open up at 9am for coffee and doughnuts - seminar starts at 10am.
Express Composites will host this seminar on what their company can offer with regard to composites, reinforcements, core materials, abrasives and oh, so much more.  Whether you are a vintage wooden boat restorer, fiberglass restorer or starting a new build
 from scratch using a contemporary plan, there is something here for you.  This will be a fun filled session.  Bring your questions and an open mind.

Me to Dane ...

Will post on forum.

Dane's reply ...

Thanks Gregg,
The ACBS is actively looking to engage people from all areas of the classic boat hobby. It would be great to see some Glastron guys at one of these events.
Scott McInnes does a good job with these seminars and doesn't hold back with information. Anyone looking to do some of this work on their own can learn a lot from Scott. It also makes you appreciate how good they are at what they do.
I had my CVX-17 worked on last Winter at Scott's Princeton location. New floor, transom and stringer. They had the work done in one week.
