Hi Folks,
Is anybody interested in having a Rendevous this summer in New England. I was thinking of the area South of Cape Cod, Vinyard, Cuttyhunk, New Bedford,and Hadley's Harbor. If we have it in June, maybe the Marina's might cooperate.

This kinda got lost in the flurry of recent gathering talk, so I thought it should get bounced back up top for the Man From Nantucket. Sure don't want anyone to miss out on something. The places he lists as possibilities certainly sound exotic to a left coast guy! _________________ TyBoo Mike

I tried to post a message this AM, but I don't think it went thru. So, if this is a repeat, I apologize.
Are there still C-Brats interested in a June gathering in SE MASS?
If yes, I'm willing to try to put together an agenda using guides, phone, and any input from C-Brats.
Is the 3rd or 4th week of June preferrable? Weekend or midweek?

OK, take it from a "veteran" (a whole year!) of Left Coast C-Brat events.
Rule #1 - there are no rules!
Rule #2 - an agenda would be entirely too organized!
Seriously, after a date and place get set by somebody suggesting it and enough people saying they will probably show up, the resident Nerds make an Announcement thread and set up a signup list. After that, the only thing we count on is a Saturday night potluck. Friday night for those who show up is admiring boats on the dock and drinking beer. Sometimes it is dinner in a local restaurant if there is one, more often it is dinner on board everyone on their own. (From Cathlamet, we went up to a little restaurant in town, can't remember the name, but awesome prime rib!) Saturday more people show up, more admiring boats, more beer. After breakfast, fishermen go fishing, maybe somebody suggests a cruise and some people (or maybe everybody, if it is a great cruise, like whale watching or something) go for a cruise. Saturday night, ah Saturday night! A veritable feast usually! Beer, if any is left. Sunday, maybe we fix breakfast on board, maybe we go to a local restaurant (From Jarrell's Cove we went to Leonard's Place in Allyn), then disperse and go our separate ways home.
That's been pretty much the program to date... Rick from Maine wrote: | I

Rick, I would add to Pat's post that when Jim of the vessel "Pounder" is attending a gathering in California he brings his black powder cannon along and "punctuates" the setting sun on Friday and Saturday evenings with an EXTREMELY LOUD celebratory cannon roar salute! It is certainly a "nice touch" to a C-Dory Gathering. _________________ Dave S.

Thanks for the tips! I've got to keep that in mind, RELAX.
Yup, we need to pick a place and time to meet.
So far, looks like 3rd week is the choice which could mean the weekends of Friday 6/11 to 13 or 6/18-20 ( which is Father's Day wknd) could be used. Please let me know your druthers.
Since having a place to meet is mandatory, would it be preferrable to use a marina near a restaurant for the first Friday night? I'll start looking up options. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'll look for a place with a ramp to allow C-Brats to tow to, if they're not going to get there by C-Dory.

Rick from Maine,
If we're talking weekends, the 18-20th are the Widget crews vote. Besides, what better way to celebrate father's day? And the last day of Spring? Yes, we would need a ramp. |

So far, there are 3 C-Brats interested in gathering in Buzzards Bay or Narragansett Bay area, and leaning towards the 3rd week of June. Any other C-Brats considering joining us?

Date and Place have been established.
Date: Friday, June 18th thru Sunday June 20th
Place: Fairhaven, Mass. ( which is on the other side of the river from New Bedford)
Moby Dick Marina has several slips available for us, a launch ramp, and place to park tow vehicles. (I forgot to say C-Dory, so you can say that you're with Rick from Maine. Debbie at the marina is helpful). Phone number to reserve slip is 508-994-1133.
Other marinas in Fairhaven/New Bedford have transient slips available, though none had more than 3.
Launch Ramps: In addition to the ramp at Moby Dick Marina, there is a State Ramp in Padnarum ( So. Dartmouth) that is only $3 per night, you just put $3 times as many nights as you'll be gone in an envelope, and park your vehicle under the lit places. This isn't far from Fairhaven. There are some other ramps in Fairhaven, but I couldn't find out about overnight parking.
Friday Night Dinner: 6:30 PM At Antonios', a Portugese Restaurant, in Fairhaven.
Fairhaven is central access to Buzzards Bay, and Elizabeth Islands including Cuttyhunk and Hadleys Harbor. New Bedford offers places to visit if it rains.
There are Motels and B&Bs within walking distance of the marina, including a Holiday Inn Express at an adjacent Marina ( which doesn't have transient slips).

Hi Folks,
You can count INN THE WATER in, if I can get out of Nantucket. I will do everything to make it. I will call the marina, and be ready to eat at Antonos.
My wife Sheila hopes to make it, but she will come by car. (Ferry to Hyannis, car to Fairhaven.
Great Choice, maybe a day trip to Cuttyhunk Island.
Man From Nantucket
