You have one more magical day today to enjoy the freedom that so many have fought and died for. Our American made water craft are the epitome of freedom. To be able to go everywhere you like, and what ever speed, or just sit and fish.

Our classic boats do all that. Now I say that because so many boats today don’t have a place to show our colors. Our boats do, and it’s one the most wonderful parts of our rides.

Chads reflection of a flag looks great on Lily

So today on Woody Boater, show us your flags, your spirit of freedom and why modern boats should have flags as the critical part of what why we own boats in the first place. Freedom.. Thanks to all our men and woman who have served for that!

    Thank you to all who have served in defense of our freedom, especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We must never forget them.

    A bit bitter sweet as this was last weekend and first true flying of the flag/pole. Shortly after in a stiff wind and good boat speed it loosened and quickly disappeared under the waves. Now having another one made.

      Yes, that is an awesome shot, with perfect lighting and “flag furl”. Any “brightener” used on that flag? or did you tone down the rest? or was this au natural?

    Hey – No credit for capturing the Century script on the transom through the flying water? (Tough crowd…)

    Anyway – When Kentucky Wonder posted the great shot of Miss America IX at speed – it reminded me of this shot Robert Miracle snapped on Lake Sinclair in 2011. Charles Mistele gave Chris Smith (closest to the camera) and Al Smith (seated middle) on one of his famous “high speed” boat rides that day. – Texx

    Texx, you’d think Frank Miklos would have at least chimed in. But you guys get access, I’ve got to deal with a boat owner who cares less whether I get a picture or not unless its for him or Captain “Tipster” – hammer down and always on the wrong side of the sun. But its his gas money, I can’t bitch (ok, I just did, sort of).
