I know that July 2007 is several months away but other boating groups are already starting to sign up for dock reservations for next year (Squalicum Harbor). Several C-Brats have indicated that they'd like to come back to Bellingham so I have obtained dock space for the dates of July 20 - July 22.

Bill and/or Mike, a signup sheet please for those dates. Thanks.

Ruth and Joe,
The "Sea Shift" vessel and crew will be in attendance for this gathering! As soon as the sign up sheet is posted, we'll be on it.
Thanks for setting up this sure to be delightful gathering! We may do as we did last year and spend a couple of days prior to this gathering cruising around the San Juans.
 
Ruth & Joe, I know Caryn and I had a great time last summer in Bellingham. Thanks for doing it all over again. This time, we'll arrive early enough to get a space along the dock! :thup
 
Peter and Caryn,

Happy to read your post. You KNOW that you're always welcome to raft up to R-Matey if we've run out of dock space. Don't know yet if we'll be doing Anthony's on that Friday evening but I can tell you that when Joe and I were there last Saturday I ordered the ling cod with a sour cream and dill sauce..... it was so good!

Sure, you betcha. It took me about three minutes to do up the works. Not quite as long as you guys invested in last year's perfectly planned, flawlessly staged event. Did you get us the whole pier again??
 
I am going to have to come to this one again. I forgot my camera for the Bellingham 2006 CBGT, my first CBGT, so I have to go again just to get some pictures, so I know where I was.

Ruth & Joe – thank you for hosting it again this next year.

Must be something to it. You got a bunch of folks signed up already and it isn't even Christmas yet! As soon as the December cruise with Marty is off the list, we will remove the 2007: prefix to the other titles on cruise threads. Only have them there to keep the list in order.

Oh, and now I will go back and spell Bellingham corrrectly in the signup.

I am hoping that we'll get all of P Dock again. Depends on how many sign up so will have to wait and see but it looks like we're off to a good start.

Joe & Ruth,

I am hoping I can steal this weekend away. You people are the best of what C-Dory people are all about. I would love for my bride Kim to meet you and enjoy a C-Brat gathering. B-Ham is such a great location.
 
Ruth and Joe
We are not going to miss this one like we did last year!
Thanks for making this happen!
Cathy would speak to me very sternly if I don't sign up.
 
Many thanks to everyone who has responded to the B'Ham CBGt. We're looking forward to this event. Sometime in June I'll privately email everyone with the new 'codes' for the gates and restrooms.

I am going to make this CBGT by boat again. If any one would like to do it with me, please let me know. I know it is a long way off and things can change, however I have charted a course with point times and posted them on a web site I play with.

This is a preliminary chart, depending on who may want to make the trip with me. There is no start time or arrival time, just the amount of time between points and the amount of time for the entire trip. These times are based on no stops, however I anticipate fuel and rest stops, so the times will be adjusted when I know who is going with me.

The times for different points are so if someone wants to join us along the way, they will have an idea when we will be arriving at that location. The chart is too large to post on this site, so if you go to view it, click on the link below and give it time to load.

The chart has hot spots on it, so scroll to the bottom and start at Olympia with your mouse pointer. As you trace the route, there will be popup windows for the different locations. There are also other hot spots for tides, currents and sunrise/sunset with nautical twilight times. As we get closer to the date of the gathering, I will add the weather and wind speed with direction for the different locations, based on the times we should be arriving at that location.

A couple of other things about my site. Before you comment about the blank pages, incomplete pages, or the application form not being what you thought it should be, read the statement on my HOME page.

The Bellingham CBGT page is HERE. When you get there click on the “Olympia to Bellingham Cruise Map”.

Don't miss this CBGT because it will be one of the best and may set a new record for the number of members.

Dave. I only have one suggestion. The tide sharts that you use along the trip are not always the best ones to us. for example, the tide at everret, that you have listed, is not a very good one to us for the route you are taking. Our route takes you along the west side of that part of the sound and the tide dchart if for the east side. if you look this can be up to a hour differance. Sand point or columbia beach would be better tides to use. Same goes for seattle. that tide marker is well with in the bay. A better choice would be west point. the tide does not move down the sound at a even rate and really will start on one side of the sound long before the other. just a suggestion.
 
I really like your website. Hope I can catchup with you as you go past Sandy Point on the way to Bellingham. I look forward to seeing your upgrades posted. Again, Well Done, Dave.
