This week we prepare for and enroll SVDreamChaser into the Madisonville Wooden Boat Festival. Each year in October, people bring boats from nearby states for a classic display of quality boats and workmanship. There is a cool history here for us in that our boat was in this show in 2001 with the previous owner. When we first bought her, we found a participation plaque on board from the show.
So with all the work, we have done, we took a shot and brought her into the show We placed 3rd in the Sailboat category, which sounds really impressive until you realize there were only 4 of them there 🙂
Either way, we had a blast and would definitely do this again, it was so cool to meet so many people that have been fans of the youtube show and brought it up to us upon meeting them.
