Photos taken at the May 19, 2002 Chattanooga Invitational Club Meet. Click to enlarge. Click "back" button to return. On behalf of the South East Boat Modelers, I would like to thank all of the members of the Chattanooga Model Boat Club for their hospitality during the club meet last Sunday. In about two minutes, I felt like part of their club. In about ten, like a distant relative that you don't mind coming by your house occasionally. The day was much too short for all. Thanks again!

| Portable dock in the background. | Not enough toys to play with. |
 |
 |
| Permission granted to lay along side. | I really tried to catch some of their fast electrics. This frothy wake was as good as I got. |
