Sence we had the largest order, Ron had to get a bit creative on shipping and he did just that. Which saved us some money in the process. I have asked that the money saved be donated to Fiberglassics in our name to help keep the best infomative boating website going. Just a small token of our appreciation to Fiberglasics. I have watched this website grow over several years and couple that with some of the greatest guys you will ever meet this is truely the best place to come and get questions answered and learn how to restore your special treasure. It was the first place I went too when I bought a Bell Boy at a Pawn shop a few weeks ago. I had never seen a boat that looked like this and there is was in the Libary. 1961 Bell Boy Ballerina. I will have to post a story on that one. After all how often do you find a Glassic at a Pawn Shop.

I look forward to seeing Ron's excellent work on the Calendars soon. I also look forward to having our Museum featured on the cover of next years calendar. Ron Tells me that I get that privlage from having the largest order this year. I will have to do something special for that one for sure. I have given this some thought already and I have come up with a Group shot of some special boats taken by Glen Silker Photography, Paul Larson's Brochure photographer of the 50s and 60s. He a cousin of mine and to this day still does Marine photography. In your calendars you will find a Picture of a 1959 Larson Thunderhawk that we restored this summer for Paul W of Minneapolis MN. Quite a Family story behind that boat. I hope you all enjoy the hard work Ron puts into these Calendars they a work of art.
