Committee boat: Bob Mullen presented a listing (see attachment) of four boats for consideration for possible purchase to replace our non-operational boat. After considerable discussion, Ken Hays moved that we inspect boat #3 with the intent of buying it. Wayne Martin seconded the motion and it was approved unanimously. Ned Gatewood suggested that we try to negotiate a trade of the trolling motor for a tarp cover for the boat.

Modification of the gate: Ned Gatewood suggested that we raise the gate at the entrance to the club grounds. It was agreed that Gene Lindgren would be asked to study the situation and propose a solution.
