ANNOUNCING THE FOURTH ANNUAL

"BOATS AT THE BARNS"

To be held in conjunction with

30th Annual Red Barns Spectacular

on Saturday August 7, 2010

While automobiles are relative newcomers on the scene, boats go back thousands of years. With the mass production of automobiles in the early 20th Century, hooking the two together was a natural. By towing a boat trailer behind the automobile new and exciting recreational opportunities
opened up across the country. Preserving the history of the automobile/boat connection is a serious challenge and obligation, one that the KAARC gladly accepts.

Automobile and boat designs have merged together in many unique ways. For instance, you might see a 1957 Chevrolet hardtop pulling a 1957 Century hard top boat, both having headlights taillights and tailfins. Perhaps you will see an “Amphicar," an Auburn Boatail Speedster, or a Skiff car. We hope to have them all.  Also included will be antique outboard motors, wooden, metal, fiberglass, car top, and folding boats.  

This will be a friendly, fun show held on the beautiful grounds of the Gilmore Car Museum.  As a non-judged event we will be presenting “People’s Choice” awards. Tell your friends, or your club.
