OK, another way to tell if your boat is an 01' instead of an 02'--the 01' windshield frame had side vent windows that could swing out. The 02's had a solid windshield frame without vent windows. If your boat has the solid windows, it may be an 02', but some leftover 01' parts may have been used quite possibly. Does your boat have the extended swim platform???? A few 01's did not have that since it was an option then. As the 230 was continued to be produced, most dealers ordered them with it and eventually it became standard. 01' was the first year for the 230BR and second year for the 230CCR.
Actually, there is a rally not too far from you if you mostly hit Rend Lake. Usually late July or early August, there is the Southern Illinois River rally in Golconda on the Ohio River. I've been to it a couple of times. Usually runs from Friday to Sunday. Saturday is the big trip down the Ohio, through the locks to the Cumberland River all the way down to the locks into Lake Barkley and all the way back. Also, although not a formal mini-rally, there have been get togethers at Lake Shelbeyville. There's a number of Crownies in the Oblong area that go there.
Also, worth the haul--Chicago Loop Cruise which is typically the end of April/early May.
I will see if I have any pics of my door. Your dealer may still be able to order you a door to mount to your boat. The 230BR later was renamed the 236LS and run until 2006 I believe, so parts should still be available.
