Chad, Matt B And The Gang From Wooden Runabout Co. Tear Up Torch Lake!
The Woody Boater gang heads out on Torch Lake for the big annual Cruising For the cure event!
Chad, Matt B sent us in these fun photos from Torch lake while at the 2014 Cruising For The Cure event. This is a fun get together on one of the worlds most amazing Lakes. Combined with some of the worlds most amazing boats, and magic happens. Thanks to them for sharing.
Time to fuel up at the “Clam Shack” on one of our favorite boats of all time. A nice 1961 21″ Continental Gull Wing hardtop. This stunning boat was just refinished by the gang at Wooden Runabout Co. The name of Gull Wng and lettering is PERFECT!
Chad and lily ready to go!
I have no idea why we were sent this photo but I love the color!
Chad goes Vegas on us in the stuning 1961

Ahhh, and back to my dream boat. Mike and Kirt From Wooden Runabout Co did an amazing job on this boat.
More fuel and the Clam SHACK..
There is a fun lunch on the Poker Run and a wonderful opportunity to just hang out and have fun
Matt B and Miss Lisa . I swear that Gar Wood looks fantastic from any angle!
Thanks to the gang for sharing their fun with us this Saturday.
That is definitely a bucket list trip to make.
Staying closer to home, we went out for a morning ride before heading to the Hammondsport show. Tobler says enough of this glass boating, let’s go find some vintage wood to chew on!
Seeing pictures of the 21′ Conti is making me finally want to get mine done, after 4 years. I think it is time……
Found a nice Garwood utility. I asked the guy maintaining it if he could help me re-power my Shepherds and he just started mumbling and then swearing about some crazy guy named Phil.
Fresh pack of bacon from Shirk’s, the Menonite butcher up the hill, one ice cold six pack of Bell’s Oberon from Kalamazoo Michigan, plus a hot griddle = breakfast of champions, Keuka style.
Michigan water is to die for – so beautiful. It makes the woodies even more fabulous.
Michigan beer is to die for too. The sky is a touch grey this evening so I opened up a bottle of Michigan sunshine. Life is good.
I really do need to get to the Torch Lake show someday but it will have to be an extended vacation to Michigan if I trailer a boat that far.
Pic?
Great pictures this morning fellas. Gull Lake looks like the place to be.
I have travelled or towed a boat over 1250 miles to a show years ago. Now that I have the time and am making more money I can’t afford the fuel – to tow or ride to some extent. go figure. maybe I need to switch to diesel, convert it to vegetable oil and just eat more fries to fuel the boat and tow vehicle
phil andrew the lake is torch lake. gull lake is in minn. or wis. not sure you probably gad gull lake on your mind when you posted no worries
Boat and owners are from Gull Lake in Richland, Michigan.
Michigan has a lot of nice water and nice boats, the best beer on earth. If they could only make a decent Buffalo wings…
Thanks Guys!
There are some Fine Looking boats in that part of the world.
Greetings,
I am hoping you might be able to help me this boat (attached) I would like to know the brand, the model and the year(s).
I have no more information than this picture, a client of mine ask if I could identify it and we would go from there.
Thanking you in advance.

I should say.
My guess is Aristocraft, maybe Constellation? But it doesn’t look right.
