Canadian Yachting October 2023 - 38

As well, Bob brought a very rare Chrysler 135 HP Stacker
race engine displayed alongside other classic outboards.
I have known of the Stacker since I was a kid but this was
the first time I saw one in person.
Saturday arrived and the crowds started wandering the
docks even before the show started. In amongst the static
displays, beautiful historic boats cruised by the docks
alongside, and there were waterskiing demonstrations to
entertain the crowd.
Pre-show promotion spoke of the thousands of people
who attend and that was no exaggeration. The Gravenhurst
waterfront was alive with activity as we entertained
many questions from visitors about the unique Chrysler
boats on display. Also, to our surprise, on display was a
beautifully restored 1960 Leavens Victor owned by John
Gullick.
A particular thrill for me was meeting the two sons of Joe
Fossey who dropped by to see Yellowbird III. Joe was the
crew chief of the Yellowbird and Yellowbird II race boats
which were Canadian Top Points Champions from 1967
to 1969. Based upon a similar Chrysler hull, I named our
Commando 154 after these famous boats in honour of
their heritage.
Once the show concluded, awards were handed out in the
various categories. We loaded up the boats and prepped
them for the journey home.
It is hard to describe the works of art that made up many
of the historic boats on display. The efforts to restore and
maintain these boats was clearly evident. My hope is the
sample of accompanying photos gives you a sense of the
craftsmanship and artistic skills on exhibit.
As I mentioned earlier, summer activities for us involve
water and boats. A week has passed since the show and,
as of this writing, we are currently at anchor in Fryingpan
Bay off Beausoleil Island in southern Georgian Bay. This
weekend, we had our daughter and two of her friends
aboard Boldly Go as we introduced them to floating about.
For the next four weeks, Cecily, our dog Jasper and I will
