Sorry, everything I took was in low/med resolution to save space on the camera...

For anyone not aware of what "weed anchoring" is, these are floating plants on the edge of the river. Still several feet of water under them. You just slide your boat in, keeping your outboard in clear water. Not a permanent anchorage for overnight, but great for a short rest stop!

Actually, nothing to do with the gathering, other than the long drive back home afterwards!

Built in 1954 in San Mateo, California. Keel laid as the M.V. Carquinez. Served in Cali until the mid sixties when she came through the Panama Canal where she became apart or the history if Mayport for nearly 50 years serving along side the M.V. Norfolk County (Buccaneer).

From: thataway (thataway)  Sun Mar 26 22:11:38 2017
Sailing under the name Blackbeard. The Carquinez served North Florida gallantly, decommissioned and sent to Green Cove Springs only to fly out of the ashes with a fitting name, The Noble Phoenix!!!

From: thataway (thataway)  Sun Mar 26 22:17:40 2017
She is 507 gross tons, and 185 feet long.
