Day two.........the photo boat driver emerges !

Response to Hello from Mt. Dora Florida ( 2007 Antique and Classic Boat Show )
Yes folks, this is your forum host, and photo boat driver for Classic Boating Magazine for the third year running. We encounter high speeds, spray in the face, and we have to be prepared! This was loads of fun, in case you can't tell.





And of course, my wardrobe consultant and social director, Janet, was wearing her high speed gear too!



We got up at 5:30 AM, hit the water at 7:00 AM, and did high speed fly-bys and filming until 11:30. Lots of manuvering on the water, lots of very fast boats running in very close proximity to us, some degree of danger. Thanks to good luck by all, we didn't trade any paint or varnish, and I've been invited to do this for a fourth year! Hooray!

Regards, off to dinner, lots of photos on the way,

Paul
