In '67 we had a 16' Fantasy. In 1970 my dad bought a 17' Fantasy "semi-hydro" with a 125 Merc OB. At that time we were camping out of a '65 Dodge van at Foxes & Red Rock.

welcome, I'll try to find some more later today if there is no soccer.
Im thinking to myself, self, why is a trip down memory lane so awesome. Is it because maybe people waved when they went by you. Is it because people picked up there trash. Maybe because there wernt so many boats and drunkin assholes? I think I might be on to something here.

These video's totally made my day. Brought back so many cool memories of my own with my family in Havi and in Parker in the early 70's. But I won't say my age either.........:D Thanks for sharing.
