Everyone,
I really enjoyed last weekend and meeting so many great people. Mastercraft really put a lot of effort into making this work, and their people are just the best.
Here is a link to the pictures I took, I hope it works. If you would like digital copies of any originals please email me at tennisccombs@yahoo.com . Each of the originals are about 500k, and too large to upload here.

I think we all owe it to MC to provide feedback as to what we liked and how to make it even better next year. Personaly, I think the dinner/dance and awards made the weekend. Maybe next year we could have a parade of boats, or maybe some demos from the MC team at the state park.
Can't wait until next year,
Curtis

Great shots Cutris.
My 5 year old gave my camera a pizza lens cap Friday night so, I stopped taking photos until it gets cleaned
It sure was a BLAST. Each and every part. No doubt Mastercraft put a lot of thought and energy/resources into the planning and execution. I’d say they hit a homerun with this one. I would do it again.
The only problem I have now is I now Really, Really, want an 03 197 instead of Really wanting one.. Saw a lot of great looking Mastercrafts at the Reunion and met a lot of great people!!

Great shots, it looks like a good turnout. I hope you got a chance to talk to Herald Page. His rig is the first two shots and one on the water. He has a wealth of information on some of the older boats. Did you check out his platform?

I am not sure who won, but I was trying to figure this picture out. (http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/tennisccombs/detail?.dir=/9c53&.dnm=c3d3.jpg&.src=ph)
Maybe he thought he should have won first place?

There was not a second boat in this class, and this plaque was knocked into the water, so I got a picture of it. It was finally given to David Hussey who has a boat in this class, but did not bring it.

Thanks for the explination. I was hoping the boat didn't sink.

I was the one with the 83 stars and stripes, cream and blue. I won the 80-89 class. I do not think that anyone entered the 70's class. I was kind of disappointed in the stars and stripes turnout, but it was fun anyway. I hope to see you next year with yours. Let me know how the motor rebuild goes.

Well
If anyone saw my boat at the reunion, it was the one that had about 450 miles worth of road dust stuck to the 3 quarts of transmission fluid that blew all over my boat about three hrs into the trip down. What an embarrassment that was.
I just got done cleaning that fluid off. About 4 hrs of washing hull cleaner and rewashing. I feel soooooo much better!!

Looks like that guy was eyeing your boat mark. Maybe he wanted to trade!

I will be there next year. How many Stars and Stripes were there. You were the only one I saw on Friday. I will keep you posted on the engine rebuild.

I know I could round up quite a few boats from OK to come down. I think this is a great idea........
Let us know how we can help. If you guys will get the ball rolling, we will help support you and the dealer any way we are able. We tried to have the reunion at Texas Ski Ranch a year or so ago but weather killed it all weekend. Nonetheless, we would love to do something there again if at all possible. We just need dealer and your support...

We were going to come to that one, but you're right, weather killed it. I've never seen it flood in Austin before that day.
