This was posted on PB I know many people frequent this and that site and went to this show last year. Posted by Billy B:thumbsup


Would like to invite all of you guys to the 2nd annual Needles boat / car & motorcycle show sponsored by Nordic Boats. The show dates are the 27 & 28th of Febuary with a golf tournament (best ball) on Friday the 26th. There will be a parade thru town on Friday afternoon ending at the downtown park for a BB-Q and a cacklefest promoting the weekend activities. You will again be able to run your boats and there will be grandstands set up for viewing. Running the boats will be heavily regulated (drinking will be reasonable cause to keep you on the trailer) Vendor spots are available. For info regarding the show (vendor spots/ hotels etc) please contact Cindy at [COLOR="Blue"][U][email protected][/U][/COLOR]. With the way things are in this country we could all use a weekend of hanging out and benchracing during the off season with our extended family. Hope to see you guys there.

RD, this isn't the same animal as the April/Sept dealios. This is pretty much a straight forward boat/car show. All on trailers until show hours are over (4pm?) then water is open for those participants that wanna play. This past one had about 100 boats and maybe 30 cars/bikes. Boats of all types, K's,S/S's, Jets, wood deckers, drag, cruise, you name it, it was there!

If I ever gain the motivation to finish my Shadow it will be there! If not, either way I'll have an ice chest full of beers. So come by and grab one!

I heard it was windy as hell last year, most of the boats stayed on the trailers (where flatties usually stay anyways!)lol

Last year was a good show just really windy. I didn't realize how many boats were going to be there or I would have taken my boat. This year I'm taking mine, 1 more for the fords

Yes the wind sucked, but I remember quite a few of them hit the water.

Yes but for this show, I'll take the moho down, then borrow a truck and run up to the Katherine Landing house and bring the '59 Campbell to the show.

there were some pretty cool boats ther last year. I liked that red and white flatty with the reverse flow nailhead, and the nordskog that was ther with the 427 ford in it. Hopefully this year the weather is nice and more boats can run. I'd like to run mine for a little bit too.
