12th Annual Apalachicola Antique and Classic Boat Show
The weekend featured boat building demonstrations, art exhibits, a visit from the 1877 Schooner the Governor Stone, oyster tonging demonstrations by the Franklin County Seafood Workers Association, exhibts by The Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve and The Apalachicola River Keepers. Central to the show was, of course, the displays of antique wooden and classic boats, some hand built and some lovingly restored to their original beauty. There was also a display of antique automobiles with Studabakers, Model A and T Fords and more. The weather was perfect for the event and everyone appeared to be having a great time.
