In this video you have a chance to see some of the rarest wooden boats in the world. This is the Antique and Classic Boat Society international show which this year was held in Bay Harbor Michigan. The event had 120 boats from all over the United States and Canada and then the following week they held the hot air balloon festival which was incredibly beautiful. Watch till the end to see some hot air balloons light up at night.

Chris Craft Cobra my favorite. I also like any Century wooden boat from 1955 to 1969 especially the Blue Century Arabian . Thank you .

Thanks for the excellent video. I hope to attend your event someday.
I recently attended the 50th annual Lake Tahoe wooden boat show. The show included the legendary Thunderbird.

Really nice to see so many amazing boats! Snake Charmer looked so sharp! Cool to see the unrestored 003 nearby too. Would have enjoyed introducing myself and chatting with you Friday morning but no worries, it looked like you were pretty busy with judging.

Hey Mike - one of your better videos! The music was very nice and well suited. All of your shop's boats in the show were amazing - completely unfair to pick only one. So happy the weather cooperated on Fri & Sat.

Have you ever come across a Chris Craft 21-foot Monterey outboard express cruiser? It was probably sold around 1955 as a kit, maybe through Sears catalog. Sterling Models of Philidelphia produced a 1/12 scale model kit and in the 80's Dumas models, after buying Sterling, sold a similar kit. it had a windscreen on top of the cabin, and a 35 horse Johnson outboard with the rounded maroon cover style.
