The Tahoe Steves Shoot Out Ends With A Mike Drop.
Attention, Attention, we have some Steve Shoot out Stuff today
We got a wonderful batch of Lapkin eye candy yesterday. Roar off and other amazing imagery from The Big Lake Tahoe Show. And then Steve Natale went unconventional weaponry and in one simple idea, rounded out the event. I love these shoot outs. We get to see how artists think, and it shows us how it is an art after all.
Oh, I need to polish this.. Dear, more polish..
Watch this dear. No more kids!
The human side of walking through a show is what its all about. In a way, a show is a setting, a landscape waiting for the artist eye to capture for us all to bask in. One of my favorite quotes about art is from Bob Dylan. “The purpose of art is to stop time”. And of course another favorite from Mr Dylan which is true to my heart. “In this age of fiberglass, I’m searching for a gem.” Thankyou Mr Dylan, Mr Lapkin and Mr Natale.
We all want a ride on this work of art
Classic Lapkin
That water, that varnish.
I swear Lapkin nails this over and over again.
OH! Dam!
The Bridge To happiness… and other boats. And the bathroom..
The Roar off A la Lapkin
Everyone has a phone.
The back seat wave. Should we rename the back seat wave.. The Human Wake?
Oh hell ya! Apparently I am not the only one that wanted a ride. Or Duffle bag!
The “Ya, I am down here but still will try and wave” Wave
The phone wave
No, your other right.
The thumbs up wave.
There is always one nice one in the crowd
And yet, he is all alone in the back.
Classic roar off waves
Classic Red. LOVE THIS COLOR
Splish splash kinda wave
Out of focus but babes so who cares
Your other right.
LOVE the color match. Perfect Riva moment
A Clap.. Wow.. Innovative, and does capture some of the same emotion as a wave. OH and some of that Lapkin reflection gold… or more silver looking
Wow!
We should ban all phones at the roar off’s
We need more young people.. Their waves are more straight.
The wave, the wave and point, and the Phone wave
Not sure whats happening here, but they are having one hell of a good time
Classic
Chrome, Wood, and the crisp dry air of Lake Tahoe
I am ready for my ride now!
Lapkin art, a texture of all thats beautiful about classic boats
Hatch open, jaws open
The Lapkin version of that Allison
Oh hell ya
The perfect burgee. PERFECT
The line up
OH! OH! OH YEAH
Lapkin BW
And now Steve Natale steps in.. So Simple and yet, he know what we want. CRANK IT UP!
Can never get enough of the vintage flat heads!
Lew Dobbins and Redhawk

Great photos and looks like a really fun event!
Love the blown early Hemi, like to see the boat it’s in, (hydroplane?) Need lot’s more of the video, the Lycoming is awesome.
🙏❤️
Fantastic fleet at that show. The boat “Thunder Chick” looks amazing. Any info on that mahogany masterpiece?
I damn sure wouldn’t let some fat ass sit on my sedan top. Looks like one big party exiting.
Looks like a whole lot of fun.
