Hard to believe, but we have been online for 25 years!

**Scream And Fly** · 01-10-2025, 10:17 AM

I struggle to reconcile the fact that 2025 will be Scream And Fly’s 26th year online!

Above all of the incredible events, boats, and experiences I've had along the way, it's the people I've met and become friends with along the way that makes me feel so proud and fortunate. It is absolutely true that this place is entirely created by you all, and I could never be grateful enough for all of the support you have given me and S&F over the last 25 years. It is your support and dedication that made everything possible.

It has been quite an extroadinary journey. Thank you everybody.

Below are some screenshots of what this site looked like over the years.

If it was not for S&F I don't think I would have been able to gain the knowledge and motivation to get a fast boat. Probably would have some POS Ranger from the 80's or something!

Thank you Greg and all the members here!

Thanks Greg!. I've been a member for 20 years and enjoyed the information and knowledge that's shared here. Also fond memories of boat racing in the 80s.Its been good for a network of vintage boats and boat parts. And we've had some good members here willing to share their experience.
Thanks guys.

I'll second this, I've been a a part of many forums over the years for many different hobbies. Most have died out and been lost along with all of the awesome information within then. I'm glad this one sill goes strong, especially since I don't use Facebook.

Wow !!!

I just looked - I joined June 11, 2001. It’s been fun looking at this site almost daily for the past 20+ years.

Congrats Greg - nice work.

You have a right to be proud Greg. I can honestly say this site changed my life in several ways. From the friends gained to the parts and boats. Lots of good peeps here. Thanks.

Instigator had a bad spring in 2001. Good to know.

Wow, I joined in 2002 but was snooping long before that. I've met people from Crescent Bar Washington to Raystown Lake in PA to Florida on the Suwanee.

Thanks for your hard work Greg. Screamandfly is awesome

**David** · 01-10-2025, 09:08 PM

Thanks for the site. I have been here since April 2001, so probably close to the beginning. I found my SS2000 here forever ago, and also the 200XS that is currently on the transom.

But the big question is do you ever use your boat?
