From last year of course. 

Easy to see why the neighbors dubbed it the "Flying Refrigerator".  The Chrysler emblem was removed from a spare parts engine and the Glastron Carlson emblem is just the decal (hence the reason I am still looking for an original).

Unfinished frame bought at "Michaels" craft store, along with matting and black felt to fill in at top and bottom of picture.  This photo was shot by a neighbor with a camera more valuable than my boat.

Towing the seaplane must have been interesting with the line off center on both the boat and the plane. fair bit of steering used on both ends.

Not as cool as towing a sea plane on your stern, but how about a Sheriff ?

Few More:

This has got to be the ultimate right? Bass Lake near Somerset WI. Back when dumb phones had really crappy cameras.


Tonka Jim's boat. October on the St. Croix


V172 on the frozen St. Croix in February


CV23 on St. Croix


Banjo and CV16SS on Mississippi in St. Paul


I'm surprised that didn't rip the cleat off! More surprised you risked it with that fine Pickle!

I think he is calling in your numbers right there in the pic and there's Gregg, illegally sitting on the seat back. lol

yea, yea, yea.... young and dumb. LOL. Speed was not more than an idle and the plane weighed nothing and only pulled him a few hundred feet till he says " let me try it once more but hold on to the rope" next thing I know he's got it running and doing circles around me while I am holding the rope with my hands!!
