ABOUT US 

Vintage Tahoe Tours, LLC represents the culmination of a long term desire by our principals Tom Bottenberg and Dean Woolery, to combine their passion for classic boats with a unique chartering model which can make them available to everyone; and to do it in such a memorable setting as Lake Tahoe.

We believe we have aggregated a unique collection of classic wooden boats which perfectly reflect the tradition of the lake as well as suit the boating needs of most groups. From smaller runabouts to larger cruisers, Vintage Tahoe should have the vessel which suits your need.

Our Managing Partner is Tom Bottenberg. He developed our business model and manages the strategic efforts of both our Lake Tahoe venture as well as the expansion of our Vintage Yacht Charters brand throughout California.

Our Operating Partner is Dean Woolery. Dean is a Vintage Tahoe Tours, LLC Principal and is primarily involved with developing and directing all operations and sales alliances in Northern California, including Lake Tahoe. Dean manages all the captains and supervises our rotating boat inventory at Lake Tahoe as well as San Francisco and Napa.

Brian Newman is also a Vintage Tahoe Tours, LLC Principal and is primarily responsible for our web and graphics related efforts. An avid outdoorsman, Brian is equally comfortable hiking the mountains around Lake Tahoe or simply viewing them from behind the wheel of a classic Garwood, Chris Craft or Stephens Brothers yacht.
