The Lake Champlain Chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society hosted its 32nd annual boat show at the Burlington, Vermont, Community Boat House. It was another gorgeous day that brought out more than five thousand onlookers to view more than 40 unique antique and classic boats of all varieties and materials.
Each year awards in specific categories are given to boat owners to acknowledge the care that they take to preserve their water craft so that future generations may enjoy them.
NOTE: The LC/ACBS employs "Skipper Judging" as opposed to ACBS regulated "Point Judging".
