Here are some photos from the Whitefish Chain show.

Saturday was the 30th Annual Whitefish Chain Antique and Classic Wood Boat Rendezvous. Once again our host was the Fabulous Moonlite Bay in Crosslake.

Jeffrey Breen 26′ Gentleman’s Race Boat. Peter Breen and Jeffrey Breen came from Ontario to show Jeffrey’s creation “The Apprenticeship”. Completed in 2016, they brought it down to Dora this year and logged 500 miles running the St John’s river.

33′ Goodhue Hawkins. One of three Charlie Underbrink boats at this year’s show.

The boat show volunteers and restaurant staff do a great job of making everyone feel welcome starting with the white glove treatment from the dock hands making sure that every boat gets to the docks without a scratch or finger print.

Yes thanks Dane, but did Lemonhead make it?

Well Matt, we are happy to report that the large patio and deck overlooking the docks sports an outdoor bar and grill with burgers, brats, and pulled pork sandwiches for the show attendees. Also available is full lunch menu service with indoor or outdoor seating. This boat show is also famous for providing a capable staff of volunteers at the launch ramp to help get everyone’s boats off and on their trailers safe and secure.

Thanks Matt, There is always a wide selection of classic boats present at this show. This year there were 48 entries from small cedar strip rowboats to large antique launches and everything in between.
