Hi Ross!
Sorry I missed you at the White Bear boat show, but as a columnist for The Timberjay Newspapers, featuring vintage boats of the North, I would like to feature your boat in an up coming column.
When I get enough columns, I intend on publishing a book entitled ,Vintage Boats of Minnesota...and their Stories.
If interested, send me your story as a Word.doc and your picture as a JPEG.
I am attaching a sample column here so you can get an idea as to format.
I hope to hear from you!

Hi Bob
I would be interested in sharing my story which you can feel free to edit as you please however, mine is not a wooden boat. It is a fiberglass Glastron and we were invited to take part in the White Bear Boat show this year. I also do not have any good pictures of my boat in the water as of yet. The boat is also not pristine by any measure. Its a work in progress with the motor and electrical being the priorities over aesthetics.
I will work on the story and hopefully get some decent pictures of it in the water in the next few weeks.
Thanks, Ross for responding! I will look forward to your story when ready, and tell your members to send theirs too!
Bob
