I am seriously considering it but my V175 is not up to par with Davids, Shawns or Greggs. It is original however, for the most part. If we can't use them in the water, we might as well use them on the trailer.
When do you need a definite commitment Don?
The weather has sucked so bad, we haven't been able to get my trailer painted.

We can stay flexible right to the 28th.....I really just wanted to make sure we had enough for a show before I advertised it, I think we are ok there now. We can do Friday or Saturday or both. If there are enough boats we could do 1/2 Friday and 1/2 Saturday if it worked into peoples schedules better? Any Thoughts/opinions?......I am thinking I may clean up the Futura and bring that (the one I have for sale) It is also an original and not perfect but I think it may be of interest to some with the 60 Renault and Mercruiser 0 drive. If we do one day only my thought would be Saturday.

I could do either day. Probably would be more traffic at the store on Sat. but shorter hours. Sat would probably be better for Joe but not for Gregg since he is now working weekends.
Is the "free" pizza for Sat only? That may help on the decision making.

we typically do food on Saturday only......but if we do something on friday we do have a subway and dairy queen and a chinese buffet in the shopping center next door.

I think just Saturday would be best. That way we could stay with our boats and talk to people as they come by.

Bad News.........we will not have the Pizza Truck this year. Good news.......we will have hot dogs etc. and........It sounds like Mrs. Retro might be doing Pizza for Exhibitors.........

I'll commit to Saturday. Hopefully it won't rain!

Ok looks like Saturday is the day? Right now looks like maybe 6 to eight boats........plenty of room for anybody who wants to come. I can open as early as someone wants to arrive. I have a spot to wash boats if needed etc. Any thoughts on the flyer? Changes needed? any ideas where I might post to get some crowds in? I can't wait to see these boats lined up.

Rosscoe · « **Reply #32 on:** June 14, 2013, 09:35:45 PM »

Flyer looks great. Not sure where to post it. Maybe Craigslist? I've seen other boating events on there.

Retro Performance · « **Reply #33 on:** June 20, 2013, 08:03:34 AM »

Craigslist sounds like a good idea...........Anybody have any thoughts for an ad? I think maybe we should just advertise the Boat Show on there and not the tent sale? If it was an ad with a photo would anybody be willing to use their boat for the photo?

Don, you may use my boat for a photo if that is the one you wish to select. We can post up to 6 to 8 pictures on Craigslist, so we could post all the boats there. Don, start the ad and I can make suggestions and revisions. Maybe people can e-mail me photos of their boat and I can upload to Craigslist when that time comes.

Something like ...
Come see classic G/C's at Hannay's parking lot.

Something like ...
Come see classic G/C's from local boat club at Hannay's parking lot.

Any one think using CGOAMN in ad would be OK ?
I've emailed and text Brian about using CGOAMN in flyer/ad's but he hasn't responded yet, been over two weeks now ...

Maybe just post the flyer with address ...

Brian would be fine, its promoting the club.

David CVX-16 · « **Reply #37 on:** June 20, 2013, 07:36:44 PM »

Shawn is good at putting together advertising materials and Craigslist ads. If not Shawn for the Craigslist ad, I could do that.

Retro Performance · « **Reply #38 on:** June 20, 2013, 08:15:47 PM »

Anybody good with ads, all help is welcome..........It would be nice to have a sign promoting the club on display at the show I think. Thoughts? Looks like 6 boats or for sure......any others that may be there?
