What a great show we had July 29-31 at the Shore Lodge in McCall, Idaho!  Thirty-nine boats representing the best in antique and classic wood, classic glass, contemporary and reproduction wood and even a sailboat!  Check out the 2016 directory to see all the great craft!

The weather could not have been nicer, not a cloud in the sky!  The activities were well attended and the awards banquet was fantastic.  See the 2016 winners here!

Of course, we could not have done it without a wonderful sponsors, which included Bretz Capitol Sports Sales, Prestige Water Sports and Hagadone Marine.

Our tentative date for the 2017 show is July 28-30, 2017.  Put it on your calendar today and join the fun next year!

The Payette Lakes Antique and Classis boat show will be held on July 29-31, 2016 at the Shore Lodge in beautiful McCall Idaho.  See the schedule of events on our boat show page and make sure to check out our 2016 sponsors that make this show possible!

We hope you will come see us on the docks during this event.  We will have some special things going on and I would like to highlight a few of them.

Watersports Demonstrations – Prestige Water Sports will be showcasing their boats by having watersports demonstrations on Saturday at 11am and 3pm.  On Sunday at 11am, some of our members will take their classic boats out and show the “new schoolers” how its done…”old school” style!

Racing for Charity – On Saturday, from 10am to 2pm, for a small donation, you can be the captain of a scale model “woody” and test your speed and maneuverability on a circuit course.  Half of the proceeds from this event will go to a local McCall youth organization.

And don’t forget the classic boat parade on Saturday morning at 9:30am.  Some of our members would love to include you on a ride.  Just show up on the docks 20 minutes before the start time and kindly ask if anyone is taking passengers.  You will have the boat ride of your life!

We hope to see you there!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

What a terrific 2014 Payette Lakes Chapter boat show! The event was held on August 1-3, 2014 on the docks of the picturesque Shore Lodge in McCall, Idaho. We were sold out with 49 boats in slips for the weekend with entrants from our local club and others joining from the Pacific Northwest.

The weather threatened to put a damper on the events but held off, providing much appreciated cloud cover during parts of the day. The annual Saturday banquet featured a South of the Border “Fiesta” theme and we enjoyed a live band before dinner with the largest attendance in memory. Friends, family and loved ones gathered with us to celebrate our 10^th boat show and commemorate the life and influence of Trey Knipe, the founding club president who passed in 2013. It was a special time.

An estimated 1,500 people walked the docks over the three day show and enjoyed the beauty and elegance of the fine watercraft on display. We were also joined by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary who provided a fun educational experience to all in attendance. The club’s mission of fostering relationships with the members and educating the public was accomplished in spades.

Check back soon to see the dates for the 2015 show…we hope you can make it!

Bobby Lawrence, PLC President
