It was great to finally see Alans Vacationland at our 2005 Port Huron Great Lakes Regatta. He started this project shortly after last years regatta and finished it the day before this years show. WOW what a project!! He managed to pull a close 2nd place in the Great Lakes Class, also winning the Peoples Choice award. Very cool!!

 

I might also mention it was the maiden voyage for her in our makeshift pond next to the St. Clair River.
