A Link to some videos...How Boating used to be

There are several to choose from. I liked the "Albany to NYC Outboard Marathon"; the Hudson River; 1949

"Family Cruising, Outboard Style" is good too....shows a beautiful cabin cruiser on Rivers feeding the Great Lakes.

If it's raining or snowing where you're at...pull up a chair and enjoy!

I agree with Greg

Those are pretty cool. The family vacation was pretty entertaining, I loved how Mom was always beautifully put together, I'm sure that living on a 20' boat with two adults and three kids was just like a luxury suite in a good hotel ...

I had to laugh at the picnic scene, she's kneeling on the ground, but wearing an apron to protect her clothes. Was it some kind of law back then that women had to wear an apron when involved in any food-related activity?
