TheSouth Tahoe Wooden Boat Classic was held on July 30th and 31st this year at Lake Tahoe's only inland marina, Tahoe Keys Marina & Yacht Club in South Lake Tahoe.

This years boat show featured 72 antique and classic boats and honored Lake Tahoe's Birthday Girl, Thunderbird.  In her 70 year life she has been the site for many gala cocktail cruises for the rich and famous.  Now protected by Foundation 36, she cruises the Lake with people like you aboard.  In addition to seeing Thunderbird and all the other beautiful antique and classic boats, we had another treat this  year.  On land people saw amazing '60's drag race boats including Golden Komotion that won in the blown gas class time after time in California's Central Valley venues in the 1960's.  We turned over the engines of some of the wood antique and classic boats and heard the roar of the amazing drag boat engines.  Several families took take a ride in Miss Tahoe, the Tahoe Maritime Museum ride boat show because they joined the Museum at the show!  People wandered under the umbrellas and tasted fine Picchetti wines, Korbel California Champagnes, & enjoydd the day as they strolled through sponsor and charities booths, and bought a memory of the day in the Antique & Classic Boat Society's Ships Store.  A couple thousand people enjoyed a snack, a drink, a BBQ'd lunch featuring Stella Artois by Fresh Ketch under the umbrellas or lunched at the Fresh Ketch Restaurant overlooking the marina.

All in all, over 2200 people enjoyed this year's South Tahoe Wooden Boat Classic.
