As the Prop Turns!

We are always talking about developing youth programs and finding ways to get young people interested in antique and classic boating. Here Sunnyland member Dave Doner is doing his part to share his love for boating with his grandson Darrin Doner. They are pictured in his 1936 yacht tender "Ida" at the Whitefish Chain Boat Show in Crosslake, MN at Moonlight Bay on July 25th, 2009. What better way is there to introduce young children to boating than to give them a boat ride?
