Anastasia III wins top award!

Hull #99, 1986 Krogen 42 Anastasia III won the Jack Campbell Memorial Trophy for best family boat in the 52nd annual Clear Lake Christmas Boat Lane Parade this last Saturday. It was a windy night, gusts up to 25 out of the North, but the water stayed deep enough and the parade went very smoothly. We even ended up in the news over in the UK!

That second shot looks like you're listing, but on further review, it looks like it was the photographer that is listing.

Congrats Keith. No wonder that we haven't heard much from you lately. You were obviously busy.

Keith: You're renowned among the Krogen community for those light displays. A lot of work, yes? I guess it's a great reason to keep the genset in shape.
