Oktoberfest
Lake Ogleton, September 30 - October 1
Wayne and Joan Savage, C36 Jubilee, captained another great Oktoberfest raft-up! 16 boats, plus 1 guest trawler, and their 42 crewmembers gathered for a night of wurst, bier, and a fun time.

The attendees were:
- Jim and Suzanne Bergeron, Quebecois
- Dan and Martha Bliss, Brunelle
- Pete and Kathy Bruzik, Pekabu III
- Mike Davis, with Jennifer and Jason, Ayewash
- Phil and Margaret De Nardo, Tink
