Dave Clayton Snags Saturday Night Live

By Sally on March 11, 2011

Folks, Stay up late, set your Tivos, schedule to record on the ole Blue Rays, theres always the ‘play again’ app for Time Warner …

This Saturday, 03/12/11, our 14′ Whitehall Gig ‘Shocacopac’ will star in a ‘SNL’ ‘Titanic’ skit.

VCB will receive a much needed donation in place of rental fees.

Be sure to look for our gig, it should be funny. I suspect that there will be more boat time than the ‘Silversides’ cameo on ‘Nova Science Now’ and a lot more than the East River ‘row by’ in the ’08 ‘Gossip Girls’.

VCB Boatbuilding 3-2-11

By Sally on March 3, 2011

City As School students accompanied by their teacher Andre showed up in droves and working with other VCB volunteers got a lot done. As a result, the floorboards are built and mostly fit. Dave and Ruth worked on repair of the cannon ball hole in Bird and a crack in the Hull of GML in preparation for the Snow Row March 12.
