There is only 3days left till the Great Lakes Small Lakes Small Craft Symposium 3. This year’s event will feature seminars by West System/Gougeon Brothers, Bill Ryno of Brightwood Boats, Dave Gray/PolySails, and more. There will be a finishing seminar by Pete Mathews of Interlux Coatings. The door prizes are still coming in and let just say; there will be some happy faces this year! Our Cajun Pirogue, which will be raffled off for charity, is finished and on display at the local Barnes and Nobles. This boat is gorgeous and will make a great fishing/ exploring boat.

Haithco Lake is a spring fed lake that is not effected by the present low water levels of the Great Lakes, so bring your boats and plan on using them. A lot of people have questioned the word symposium. Well to describe our event accurately, It is a combination of boat building and restoration demonstrations, mixed with a messabout atmosphere. Our awards system is in a tongue and cheek flavor and we firmly believe that this is YOUR event and would not exist without you.

We have over 85 boats coming from all over the United States and Canada, and were sure that you will find something of interest.

See you August 19,

Gerald McQuinn Tri-City amateur Boatbuilders
