The 50th Annual Lake Winnipesaukee Antique & Classic Boat Show

Greetings antique boat enthusiasts!

We had a spectacular day at our 50th Annual Lake Winnipesaukee Antique & Classic Boat Show, which took place on Saturday July 27th, the last weekend of July as it always does. The weather was truly in our favor with a temp of 80 degrees, low humidity and a really nice breeze to boot. The docks were filled to capacity with a great variety of of boats, and the parking lot was packed to the gills with gorgeous rides. It turned out to be a perfect day for it!

ACBS’s Executive Director Lora Nadolski Hanson joined us for the festivities, along with her husband Aaron, thanks for making the trip to celebrate our 50th, you two!

 Gunner Found of Cinetrek Media was on hand to capture the day’s events with his drone and handheld cameras. Don’t hesitate to reach out to him if you’d like some footage like this of your own boating escapades!

Wine & Whiskey Travelers also took some great footage of a leisurely walk along the docks. Check out Julie and Tom’s blog for more of their adventures, boating or otherwise!

Our Chapter Photographer Eric Sojka was out and about and took some phenomenal photos of both the boats and folks in attendance. Every single photo you see here was taken by him. If you see your boat pictured we encourage you to reach out to Eric to obtain a copy of it, email him at woofen@juno.com. As always a HUGE thanks to Eric for capturing this event, as he has done for the past 49 years!
