Some cool pictures on tune harbor marina Facebook page.
Classic Guys when did you all park your boats under cover and take pictures. That's petty cool.
we made a run over to Watson's the day before the event (thursday) to set some stuff up and met with Josh Munday from the Harbor. He had Pack's boat in the slip so we wanted a promotional shot with us

Andrew did a photo dump on the facebook page. they got some amazing photos from the photo boat of the classic.
Well some of us don't have Facebook so tell him to take a dump over here please. Thanks
I will generate a separate post to document the LJF classic day, stay tuned.

What is the date for 2020? I want to take our boat back to TRL and that would be a perfect time.
The date is buried somewhere in here. I believe it was July 25th.
Great. I was reading all of the comments and then kind of bagged that when I saw that Pac was there and just started looking at the pics. Sounds like I need to start looking for lodging. Were the people staying in a general area or all over?
We were just up there in June - before the new boat - and rented a houseboat from 5 star houseboats. They were outstanding and they lived up to their name. I highly recommend them if you would ever want to houseboat. Several boat sizes, well maintained and I came down with a sinus infection from a summer cold and they came out and picked me up on their pontoon so I could run into Branson West and get some antibiotics. Love those people. Then, a friend was visiting from STL and they hauled her out to us and picked her up so she could spend the day.
Our boat had a tracking satellite with DISH TV with a bar upstairs, hot tub, and TV and I watched the Blues WIN THE STANLEY CUP from the rooftop that Wednesday night even though I was sick as a dog. What a memory.

I kinda coordinated from the cobalt chat side of everyone coming and I have a place on Indian Point. So that is where everyone stayed this year. That is where the harbor is as well (dealer that puts on the regatta)
Next year the event will be at Campbell point marina most likely as they flip each year. Which is in Shell Knob.
The wife and I have been thinking about moving. But I doubt we will be anywhere different by the event next year. So I’d probably have everyone stay around IP again. The day of the regatta they will have a big cruise from the Harbor to CPM.

I would hate to be the mechanic that has to make sure that bad boy is in tip top shape! especially for an event like that. We all know that Cobalts are awesome and run forever. But that has to be a stressful job.
BTW big fan of that boat. I bet one of those with a 454 would be a blast!
This is waaay to good not to share! The TRL wannabes are texting back and forth and this just happened.

He said please don't post the picture yet though we are still working on it. Only myself and Bobrae know about it. We are thinking a twin turbo though. Maybe staggered twins.

I think Steve resized a bunch of the photos in the Loren J. Feldner Cobalt Classic thread.... I can only take that big of dump once a month. Still trying to unload on Instagram 3 pics a day.... lol
