If anyone has suggestions for what to bring or what is needed for the potluck on Friday, please feel free to let me know! Looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow. We should arrive by 4PM by boat.

Thanks for the information! The weekend of the 19-21 we got lazy and so dropped the boat in at Jordan Point again. We cruised south to the Pagan River and ended up lunching it just past the bridge at the marina. Beautiful spot. We ran across the James and checked out Deep Creek. Lots of...

We became members here long before we bought our boat. The only ones we looked at were listed on this site, as was the one we purchased. Wait - I take that back - we looked at one from a now ex-dealer in the area before they became ex.

Last weekend we put Choir Practice in at Jordan Point Marina. This was our second time on a ramp and it went quite well. The cruise up the James to Richmond was nice - its very quiet up that way until you get about a mile from the top. We ran into some rowing races and had to go slow enough...

Just made my slip reservations. I was told two things that might be of interest: There is a place to park the truck There now have a shuttle bus that goes into Rock Hall So looking forward to this! dahkota

Good Evening all! Choir Practice, after spending a long week in the Florida Keys, is now sitting on the hard in Virginia (right outside Surry). Unfortunately, its going to be a beautiful weekend here and we have no boat! But, we do have plans for a couple of weekends in April and May, weather...

Thanks for the update! We reserved Pennekamp for the week even though we don't plan on being there just so we can park our truck. They didn't tell us we could take a mooring ball! So that is what we will do. I have your PM - we should be able to run into you all some time during the week. I...

On Friday night we will be hauling Choir Practice down to Pennekamp - hope to make it there by late Saturday afternoon so we can drop her in the water. We will over night there, then head south on Sunday. Our only solid plans are to (hopefully) be in Key West for St. Patrick's Day (March 17)...

Mike and I are in Seattle, heading to the show in about an hour. Look forward to meeting everyone later. Courtenay Choir Practice

Does anyone know if it is possible to park a truck and trailer at Pennekamp Park for a week? We thought we might launch from there. I will keep Knight Key and Boot Key in mind if it turns out we can't.

Mike and I would love to go to another CB gathering - our last was by foot. :) We can make it to the upper bay or lower bay. Or both. We just love being on the boat so any excuse will do...

In mid-March, Mike and I plan on spending a week in the Keys on Choir Practice. We hope to launch somewhere in Key Largo (trying to figure out where to leave the truck and trailer) and cruise to Key West and back. We'd love to run into other owners, especially ones that know the wheres and...

I haven't made my reservations yet, but hope to tomorrow...

Our Bucket list, in the order we hope to achieve them: Inside Passage Lake Powell Great Loop Bahamas Cuba Maine/Canadian East Coast Greenland Europe (I haven't gotten that far in my planning so I have to leave it vague) Choir Practice

Call me stupid, though I would rather think of it as inexperienced. This is my first season in my own boat on the Chesapeake Bay, though I have been on boats of various sizes in other waters. I have read everything I can find on the dynamics of wind, waves, and current but none of it tells me...

This is the trip I am working and planning on. Definitely will have to read the article and blog. The hard part is finding the perfect boat that will hold enough gas for at least 670 miles.... I'm not interested in a trawler or a cat over 35', but I am interested in fuel efficiency...

Thank you for all the replies and information. Captain Charlie, we will definitely take you up on that offer! I missed the chance to meet you at the Bay gathering. Hope you are feeling well. Our choices in catamarans right now seem to be the TomCat, the GB 2690, or the ArrowCat. The...

The first night I spent on Choir Practice was really rather horrible. My hips ached so bad I could barely crawl out of the berth. and I'm not large nor old! It reminded me of sleeping in a bus station or airport - I don't know why. So that evening, I came home and searched the C-Brats site...

Mike and I recently decided that we would head to the Seattle Boat Show this year to search for our retirement boat (it will be catamaran, we just don't know which). Lo and behold, there may be a gathering! I'm interested in finding out the details - we had planned on staying downtown so we...
