Last Saturday (8/2) there were 25 original Gar Woods on display at Obexer's Marina on Lake Tahoe. Obexer's was the original Tahoe Gar Wood dealer.
In this photo's foreground are the only two 1931 33' Gar Woods built. In the backround are six more original V-12 powered Gar's. This is the only place in the country you will find this many Gar Woods in one place. I only wish I had a photo of the entire marina.

Update: This event usually precedes the Concours, but the Concours will be in June this year.
The 2009 Gathering of the Gar Woods will still be in August, thankfully, August 1st to be exact - at Obexer's.
The legendary Tony Brown is now running this event with his first mate, Sabina. www.WesternRunabouts.com
