Craig Ferguson

Dave Bryan and I were out last Friday, February 22, 2008. I told Dave I wanted him to meet Cragi Ferguson. Craig had the Fountain that was too long for the Catalina Ski Race, so Craig had the officials measure the boat's length, and then he took a Sawsall to the nose...(See picture)... Craig did win that Ski Race....He's a family man and GREAT GUY...
