Catalina 2009

Hi folks,

I was wondering if any of you are going over to Catalina this August? I know I would like to go over in August and would like to be there if any of the C-Dory group is there. The week of August 17th would be the traditional week. I don't have a C-Dory anymore, but I sure did enjoy the camaraderie at Catalina.

I plan to be there, haven't seen a peep about about the cruise yet.

Great Steve! I will plan on it too! Hopefully we will get some others too!

I'm planning on joining the group again this year, too.

I'd also be interested in towing up to the Ventura area some weekend or slightly extended weekend for a Channel Islands trip if any of you locals up there are looking for another boat to tag along.

Keep me in mind and give a little heads up if you have plans for fishing or poking around out there.

I don't who is heading this up. Wish we could make it, but we have plans on Lake Powell in September.
You all have fun.

Marcia and I are aboard for Two Harbors during the week of the 17th.

That's how we discovered C-dories and the C-brats. We were there two years ago in our Wellcraft center console (cold and wet) and saw how much fun the group was having.

We're looking forward to it! Very Happy

I've got it penciled in for the week of August 17th unless something weird comes up to keep me away. I'll bet I can make at least part of the week.

Week of the 17th August sounds good to me, not sure if I'll spend the whole week or not, kid-availability is the question.

I just got back from a 2-day'r at the Isthmus on the string line. No space problem Friday and early Saturday, but I imagine the bulk we're coming over while we were leaving about noon. Very nice weather, ideal, light breeze, 75-80F or so, about the same as I was last there. Volleyball net is still in good shape (this is important...!), good tunes at night at the dance floor. Fishing wasn't good at Ship Rock, lots of fish, just not hungry for what I was offering (cut squid).

Oh, and saw another C-Dory, Tortuga (a CD-22), right across from me on the string. We were both pretty occupied with our "crew", his were 3 or 4 little ones, mine were 4 between 15-18 yrs old -- I would have traded...

Great to meet you Steve. I had four on board -- 7 through 13. It occured to me that we may have set some record -- 2 C-Dories with 10 people aboard. Made all those big boats with 2 or 3 folks on board seem like a lot of wasted space.

I won't be able to be there in August as I'll be back at work. But I know you all will have a great time.

Cheers!

Hi guys,

We are fairly new new to C-brats and C-dory ownership, but we are interested in joining the Catalina group in August 2009. Is there still a contingent heading to Catalina this August? Any divers/fishers? We are leaving from San Diego and may need to go a bit earlier than the 17th...........maybe around the 10-12th-ish depending on weather. Anyone up for some fishing and/or diving? Of course, there is always just good cold beer to enjoy also!!

We are getting a slip for our boat in Marina Del Rey from July 24-Aug24 and plan on going over to Catalina almost every weekend that month. We used to go a lot when we lived in San Diego - this will be the first time going to the island on our C-Dory. Hopefully we will meet some of you over there.

Liz and Ernie,

I dive and both my kids (20, 26) are certified. I will bring my equipment, the diving is great all around there. We generally dive as a group and last year there were several couples who dive, had a great time!

Still not sure of my schedule for that week, but I will be there at least for 3 or more days for sure.
