Re: Fw:
Hi,
There's certainly a Chebacco in Maine - Phil published a photo of it
in his MAIB article on the Chebacco a couple or three years ago.
Trouble is, he couldn't remember who the builder was!
During my time as Chebacco News editor, nobody in Maine ever
contacted me - so this is one of several Chebaccos that remain
unrecorded in the annals of Chebacco News.
Chebacchisti seem (in some cases) to keep themselves to themselves.
For example, the guy who keeps his Chebacco in Gloucester MA never
got back to me when I wrote to him, which is a pity because it seems
he's made some epic trips. Likewise, Brad Story built quite a number
of Chebaccos (10? 12?) and yet I've only been able to track down two
owners of Story Chebaccos - one of them being Brad himself!
At the moment there are about 700 of us on this list, mostly with
Bolger boats, some with more than one. Many famous Bolger Boat
owners AREN'T members, so it makes me wonder just how many Bolger
boats there are out there. Thousands? Tens of thousands?
