I literally can’t keep my eyes from watering every time I think about him. He was a good friend and wonderful human being. I truly miss him.

I've know Carl the longest out of any other board members over the years.

I'd go over to his house and have some beers in his garage.... Hang at V-Drive Shows. Hang at the river. Hang at races.

CC was a great friend to have and is dearly missed.

Hope the CL's are ice cold and NEVER get warm up there CC!

Carl was a cool dude! My grandma and him were both in the same hospital at the same time. I still remember the day he passed when I peddled my bike down to beach and had a couple beers while watching the sunset, thinking about life and stuff.

Yep. Same here. One of the most likeable people I've ever met on this board. Will always wish I could have known him better.

It's hard to believe it's been three years already. Hope to see him on the flip side someday...

Still remember the first billy b show when I met Carl. I had my first Moho on my first trip ever and got the pleasure of camping next to him. He showed me what to do with everything on that rig. We shared many cocktails that weekend and even more stories. He was a stand up guy. Miss his contagious laugh

Very cool of all of you to pay respect to your friend Carl, I never met him but can understand a loss of a friend, when I think of my buddy that passed in 04 I smile of the great friendship, as I’m sure you guys have a smile when remembering the great times spent together.

RIP Carl and God’s Blessings to you.

Drew bought it. I’m not sure if he still has it or not? For so,e reason I think he sold it last season
If hes talking about the red 210 yes, Drew sold it last season and is going on to something bigger.

He was an original and like everyone on here that knew him well knew what an outstanding guy he really was. I do miss him and actually think of him often. When my older son was born he gave us a book he as read to when he was a kid that was one of his favorites, I hope that my boys like it as much as he did.

So every year at Billdo's "Friendsgiving" party Bill would always have the blazer that CC gave one year in the white elephant gift. He and I would pour two fingers of Jack and toast him.

I’m still pretty sure Chester faked his death and is living his life happily as a guy named Bill.

Campbell Carl was one of a kind. If you were fortunate enough to meet him you will never forget him. His knowledge and generosity speaks for itself. Here is one of the few pics I could find of him. He is in Outdrive1 (Pauls) boat fueling up at Willow for what I think is his last DAM2DAM run.
