Boats, seaplanes at Lake Guntersville - May 17

A rare opportunity to see antique and classic boats from around the South coincides Saturday, May 17, with the annual Guntersville Seaplane Fly-In at Lake Guntersville in Alabama. "We've had the antique boat show here before, but this will be a first that we will also have the seaplanes on display," says organizer Steve Cullen. The event is presented by the Dixieland Chapter of the Antique & Classic Boat Society and the Lake Guntersville Yacht Club. Boats on display will include vintage Chris Craft, Century, Gar Wood, Hacker Craft, Lyman's and Thompson. Seaplanes by Cessna, deHavilland, Piper, Maule, Husky and others will come from as far away as Alaska. The craft will be on display from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. CDT. Admission is free.
