A first one for us and a great gathering it was. It was wonderful getting to meet everyone and putting faces to boats. Good food, good company so could not have been better. Thanks Mike and Monica for all the arranging. Spent the afternoon at Sidney Island and picked up 5 nice crab, all females so back they went. I guess wiener and beans for dinner tonight. LOL., see you all next time around. Valerie & Terry |

I had a good time organizing the event and really enjoyed seeing everyone over the weekend. The weather more or less cooperated with us. Sunday morning was glorious! Looking forward to seeing some photos! _________________ Mike and Monica Jackson, Victoria, BC

Thanks Mike and Monica for being such wonderful hosts. As stated at the potluck, it's great the Canadian C-BGT tradition continued and Sydney was an extremely worthy follow-up to Nanaimo, Montague, and Comox.
Great to see everybody and also meet some new folks!
Take care and hopefully some of you will make the trek south for the SBS (Seattle Boat Show) 'boatless' C-Brat's Gathering on January 31st, 2014 (see the C-Brats post @ http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=20287&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=sbs&start=0 ).
Take care and stay safe,
Dan & Tanya on C-Renity |

Our thanks to Mike and Monica for hosting a great get together. We were most impressed and really appreciate the group. We look forward to Pender Harbour and the almost obligatory pre/post visit to Princess Louisa.
Perhaps we can help with that when the time comes, Anthony, Jane and Farley aboard Casper. |

Hi c brats. Any photos yet of the gathering? There are quite a few boats still cruising the Gulf Islands, but anyone who has wifi loading a few? We left a 6 boat pod at Conover Cove and spent the night in beautiful, quiet Annette Inlet on Prevost. Some great weather now. Cheers. George |

I am jealous of those of you who got to keep cruising! I did post a few pictures on my picasaweb site linked a few posts above. They are not very creative! There is a close up of Kerri on though! |

What a nice time we had at Sidney. Friday dinner at Fish on Fifth was great, considering the reservation was for 28 and 40 people showed up.
We are sitting in the shade, here in Ladysmith, drinking an adult beverage with Chuck & Penny from Two Bears. Last night at Pirates cove & the night before with a group of six other C-Dorys at Conover Cove. What a BLAST we had. The best part of being a C-Brat is the community, Ann & I call you family.
Thanks to Mike for all the work putting together the Sidney CBGT.
Hope to see you all at the Tap Room in Jan.

Another fantastic gathering under our belts. It was great to see old faces and meet new ones. The C-Brat camaraderie is amazing. We had a super time. Special thanks to Mike and Monica for putting it all together, and Monica's home baked C-Brat cake was yummy, thank you.
The mini gulf islands cruise following the gathering was also lots of fun. A real bonus.
Take care everyone, see you next time.
Martin and Andrea. |

Thanks to Mike and Monica for hosting this event. It was great and for those who missed it the Thai restaurant had the best Thai food we have had outside of Thailand. Meeting up with boats in Montague, Tommy Transit and his famous bus ride to the pub and then on to Wallace Island where seven boats met. A great time.
I have posted a few pictures at the end of our album.
I will be talking to our local marinas to see if we can host the next one in Pender Harbour next year. _________________ Ian & Jackie Grant |

Hi Mike,
Perhaps Tyboo Bill or Da Nag Mike could set up a album so we can post our pics of the Sidney gathering?
