We've had an unforseen change of plans and now might be able to attend this gathering. We aren't sure yet but maybe. I was looking for a good launch ramp in Active Captain and didn't find one in the Poulsbo vicinity. What ramp(s) do you recommend for this gathering? I am hoping to find one where we can safely leave the SUV and trailer for many days so we can explore a bit in addition to attending the gathering. Thanks for any suggestions you might have....

I hope you can make it Rob. Depending on which side of the sound you will be launch from you have lots of choices. On the Kitsap Peninsula side, there's the Brownsville Marina which I've heard is a good place to launch and close to Poulsbo. Then there's the a Kingston Marina which has a good launch and seems pretty secure. On the east side of Puget Sound close to I-5, there's the Edmonds Marina which has a nice sling launch. We kept.our boat there last summer and it's a well run facility and secure. Plus it's an easy crossing of the sound, through Agate Passage and around to get to Poulsbo, a nice little 1 hour cruise. Hope thus helps. I'm sure others will chime in.
 
We will be using the Port Orchard city ramp for the gathering and have parked there for a few days many times with no trouble. The city hall and police station is across the street so that helps.

Hi Folks:

Peter and I are planning on getting together on Monday to assign slips and send the info off to the marina. If you are planning on attending the gathering but have not yet sent your info to Peter or I ... Now is the time :D

We need your name, boat name, length, arrival and departure dates.

We are really looking forward to seeing everyone!

Rob, you are probably coming from the south, so this may be out of the way, but Port Townsend Boat Haven has a good ramp, a nice wash deck and good parking with no hassles for a week or so. Also, the launch fee is paid on the day you launch and no parking fee. It is a ways from Poulsbo, but it is a nice run if you want a boat ride.

There is a launch ramp at Poulsbo :( Avoid that one, it is not for launching a C-Dory. Short, Steep and very awkward to use. :twisted: Sorry, but whoever put that ramp together never launched anything bigger than a 10ft skiff.

Family plans had to be changed, we really wanted to make this trip as it would have been our first. Anyone know of another event on or near the west coast?
 
Last call for reservations/slip assignments. I'm submitting the list today. At this moment, there are 19 boats signed up for the Poulsbo CBGT. This would include the 16 boats listed on the event sign-up list + 3 other boats, Catch 22, Full 90 and SerenityMay1995 who are not on the list but have PM'd Jan or myself.

If you would like to sign up, please PM me at your earliest convenience. If you do decide to attend as we get closer to the event, I'm sure you can arrive at the marina and get a spot on the F dock. You just may not be able to be part of the C-Brat grouping on the first 20 slips forward of the dock. But don't let that stop you if you decide to join us at the last minute. We'll do our best to fit you in. Please consider attending this event, it's going to be fun!

All things dicey for us at the time. House sale in Chehalis is going through, and we need well drillers, surveyors and et cetera to finish the sale. I appreciate being able to be a 'last minute-or'. Hoping.
 
Poulsbo Slip Assignments:

This morning I sent a PM with slip assignments to all the folks that have confirmed attendance to the Poulsbo gathering. If for some reason you were missed, please let me know.

The marina requested cell numbers for all boats. We have cell numbers for some folks but not everyone. So, if I requested your number please respond to the PM. Several folks have already responded - thanks

For folks that are not familiar with the Poulsbo area, the CBGT will be at the Port of Poulsbo Marina. The marina is the last one on the right - north east corner of Liberty Bay. When you arrive, just proceed directly to your assigned slip there is no need to contact the marina. Once you tie up, you can go to the office to register/pay.

The marina website is http://www.portofpoulsbo.com/poulsbo-marina/

A map of the guest slips can be found at: http://www.portofpoulsbo.com/marina-map/ If you click on the map you can download a higher resolution .pdf file for reference.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

If any of you need name tags, please let me know by PM. Please provide your boat name, names of all the passengers from your boat, boat year and boat color.

Also, we will be having dinner on Friday night at JJ'S Fish House at 5:30pm. I would like to get a count of all who plan to attend. They have a great menu with good variety. Take a look at their website to get an idea. Plus the restaurant is right across the parking lot with a view of the water. Lastly they will do separate checks. It sounds like a fun night so if you would like to attend, please let us know how many from your party in a PM. Obviously it can be in the same PM as the name tag PM. Sorry about all these PM'S we've been requesting. I think this is the last. :wink. No reservations with the restaurant are necessary. They are expecting our group.

Thanks all. We're rally looking forward to this gathering!!

Peter, Caryn and Jan
