The most likely location will be Sidney Marina.
6-8th?
13th-15th?
20th-22nd?
Any thoughts? |
Chances of more favourable weather would be the first weekend. But I'm good on what ever the choice is.

Any of those dates work for us. I agree with Martin that weather would likely better on the earlier dates. _________________ Patti and Barry

I'm not sure whether or not I'm going to be in the PNW this summer, so I'm just posting this thinking about possibilities that may not even include me. What I wonder is how many people might want to make this gathering and then head to the Powell gathering, which usually seems to be in mid- to late-September. Obviously that would work with the early dates but not the later ones.
May not even be a "thing" if no or few C-Brats would be trying to do both.

6-8 is the weekend following Labor Day. Might be a good week to get in an cruise week between the 2 weekends. Just a thought. (WOW, wonder if I could get away with that:shock:

We'd be there for the 6th to 8th. sounds great Sidney is a cool town. Lots to do nearby. Aviation museum for flyers and Butchart Garden is a must see, boat builders to visit and easy access to downtown Victoria on a bus or car to see the harbour. George and Carolyn |

Sydney, Sept 6 or so works for us.
Actually, we think that is one of the nicest times to run through the San Juans and Gulf Islands. Weather is still pretty good, and most of the Seattle based boats have returned south to get their kids in school.

I will work on setting things up for the 6-8. Once I get the dates confirmed with Sidney Marina, I will get an announcement posted. _________________ Mike and Monica Jackson, Victoria, BC

OK, I have confirmed Sept 6-8 with Port Sidney and they will have a bunch of space for 20 or so boats. We will need to get people to do individual reservations etc (they want a credit card which will be refundable up to 48 hours prior)...
What is the next step for getting tis set up as a "gathering" on the front page? |

Just ask the "management" Tyboo Bill or Da Nag Mike, to set up a signup sheet. they will do that then folks can sign up, you can track the boats and numbers. |

Happy to fix it up for you! Check it all out and see how it looks.
I set Mike as Group Moderator/Cruise Director on the event signup list since he made the request and sent me the nice email. Usually it is the guy who starts a cruise thread who gets tapped for the illustrious position, but don't worry, Martin, the title is largely symbolic and you aren't missing out on anything! If there is beer to be had then Mike should be getting your first one. _________________ TyBoo Mike
