    My New Mission

    Never heard of such a thing either. But somehow it beats the heck out of our lakes, which are closed for use from December to April of each year. ;) :D -Chris

    The new home construction business is starting to pick up here in Toronto. And that's an area that usually leads the economy. Hopefully things will soon start picking up around where you guys are located too. :thumb: -Chris

    Chaparral Boat news

    Interesting information, thanks for passing it along. :) The boat industry has been beat up very badly. Man, it certainly doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out, that when Mercury is struggling badly and Genmar have filed for chapter 11 that things are really, really bad. And that...

    1972 Steury v518

    Glad you found the brochure in the gallery. :) I picked that up off eBay some time ago with some other brochures. I couldn't find much on Steury. What I did find searching was that they operated from 58-79, got sold around 79 and then went out of business shortly after being taken over...

    1972 Steury v518

    Hi Roy, Thanks for joining up and welcome aboard. I did come across a Steury brochure some time ago that I posted in the galllery. I'm not sure if you found that already or not. I think Steury went out of business back in the '80's from what I remember. -Chris

    Moving Adjustable Winch Stand

    Ideally, what I like for a set up, is for the bunks to extend past the back of the boat by a just a little bit. Not extend past by too much mind you, but past the bottom edge of the hull, where the boat will normally sit on the trailer most of the time, when you load the boat. To me at least...
