SNEC Vintage Treasures 2026

What a weekend! Our Southern New England Chapter’s “Vintage Treasures” boat show in Essex, CT was everything we hoped for: sunny skies, a fantastic turnout, great food and company, and of course some beautiful classic and antique boats on display.

It was a joy to catch up with longtime members and welcome some new faces into the fold. Thank you to everybody who came out to support our chapter and to celebrate our timeless boats with us.

A huge thank you to our gracious host, the Connecticut River Museum, and to all the volunteers who made this show possible. We can’t wait to see you all next year!

Your 2026 People’s Choice Award – “CURMUDGEON” 1929 Gar Wood 28′ Triple Cockpit, owned by Chris Enger and restored by Mike Sorensen. Congratulations!
