Out for a day of fishing - Joe Dowdell's boat with June Thacker,
and Barrie and Harry Smith. Greg Absten tags along in the chase boat
to take the photos and learn to fish.
Joe would have made a great charter captain.
He poled us all the way around one of the Islands fishing.
 June Thacker caught a Jack.  Harry Smith in the background.

I wouldn't recommend falling off the dock.
This croc looks like he's ready for some leg!
He was trying to climb the post - begging for water from a hose.
Master of Ceremonies at the Awards Dinner is Rich Dugan
Joe Dowdell awards PC Harry Smith $1 for the Fishing Award.
Harry's prize winning trout.
Complete with his Cheshire grin as Claudia looks on,
Capn Crunch Ken Baker gets his award.
OK - I can't remember
now what all these
other awards were for,
so I'll talk to Rich
Dugan and get the list,
then update this page.
For now I'll just post
the photos. If you see
this and want to fill me
in on what the award
was for, send an email
to me at

The commodorables inaugurate Toni into the fold.
