Fall Antique Outboard Motor Show and Swap Meet is at North Webster Town Park. Here are just a few of the many antique outboard motors displayed at the 2014 show.

NORTH WEBSTER — The Antique Outboard Motor Club will hold its 2015 Fall Antique Outboard Motor Show and Swap Meet from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19. It will be held at North Webster Town Park, 403 S. Dixie Drive, on the west shore of Webster Lake.

Several hundred antique outboard motor restorers historians, collectors and enthusiasts from across the Midwest and Canada will gather in the park for a day of activities related to the hobby. The public is invited and encouraged to attend. Events include and exhibition of recent restoration projects, serious swapping for part and literature and running these old-time boat motors on the lake.

Club members invite area owners of old outboard motors to attend the meet for a free evaluation of their old motors. Many old motors are bought, sold and evaluated throughout the day. The swapping area includes all types of parts, literature, related accessories and many antique motors.

The national Antique Outboard Motor Club, with more than 3,000 members, classifies antique outboard motors as being manufactured before 1950 and classic outboard motors as 30 or more years old being built before 1985.

The North Webster meet starts at 10 a.m. and usually runs to mid afternoon although many stay late if the weather is nice and they are able to run the antique motors on the lake.

Admission and parking are free. Parking is across the street from Lake View Pizza King and in the town lot behind the Dixie Haven Resort off East Himes Street. The park is two blocks east of SR 13 between East Huntington Street and East Himes Street.
