Happy Father's Day from the New England Chapter ACBS!

Whether it's a day on the water, a ride in a classic wooden boat, or passing along a love of boating to the next generation, some of the best memories are made aboard a boat.

Today we celebrate the fathers, grandfathers, and mentors who taught us to appreciate craftsmanship, adventure, and time spent on the water.

Wishing all the dads a wonderful Father's Day and smooth cruising all season long.

Take a look at the video from last year's Lake Winnipesaukee Antique & Classic Boat Show and you'll notice it's not just wooden boats on display. We welcome fiberglass, aluminum, and other classic boats as well. If you own an older or classic boat and would like to share it with fellow boating enthusiasts, we'd love to have you join us. Registration information is available in the comments.

"Come for the boats; stay for the people."

The boats may bring us together, but it's the friendships, stories, and shared passion that make the New England Chapter such a special group. Here are a few photos from our Annual Meeting and the people who make this club what it is.

Rain, wind, and chilly temperatures today. Days like this make us appreciate summer on Winnipesaukee even more.

Sunshine, sparkling water, and classic boats will be here soon enough.

Hang in there, boaters. Better days are ahead.

This Memorial Day, the New England Chapter of the Antique & Classic Boat Society pauses to remember and honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

As another boating season begins on Lake Winnipesaukee and beyond, may we take a moment to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy and the courage that made them possible.

We remember. We honor. We are grateful.
