09/21 - 09/23 - North Carolina C-Dory Gathering

We're thinking of attending, but couldn't get online with http://www.whittakerpointemarina.com/. Are you sure this is the correct been trying to get on it with no success.... maybe it's just down. Do they have a motel there at the marina??? We'd bring the boat but would like to say in a B&B or motel. What's the story with the River Neuss Motel & Marina??? :smiled
 
Anne YES ! I saved mine for next years Bay march but I can take it out if we need it ! :lol: We had SO much fun with Tom and everyone. I wish he was coming down to entertain us ! I'm sure we'll have fun either way. Funny I was thinking about our "marching band " last night ! You'll have to tell all the NC folks what they missed in Maryland. Take care see ya soon ! Tracy
 
No issue on the entertainment... These things just sort of create their own... and with Pandy Girl and C-Pearl on line to be there.... I feel sure a good time will be had. Happy Cruising and looks like a nice size group.

You could come hang out with us too ! The more folks we get here the more fun we'll all have ! I can't wait to take some photo's of all of us crusing together . Think about coming. There is plenty of room for everyone !
Take care.. Tracy "Dragonfly"
 
Bad news...... just got back from vacation and checked out the Orient Marina Motel http://www.pamlico-nc.com/marina.htm and was about to make a reservation when I discovered a previous committment that can't be broken :cry

The place really looked nice and convient and we would have really liked to have seen everyone and added another T shirt to our collection. Oh well, maybe the next time, or even a short mini vaction at the Orient and a little boat sight seeing. :smilep
 
Hi Roger,
Sorry to hear you all can't make it to the Gathering. If you all change you mind or can get out of this other thing.. let us know ! Take care.. Tracy "Dragonfly"
 
Hi Tracy--My regular e-mail is at the moment inoperative, so I will respond here and see what happens. I made a reservation at the marina using the website from this thread and got a prompt response (Cassie is working out-of-town this week but can get on my e-mail there!). We will arrive on Thursday afternoon and plan to leave Monday morning. We would like two T-shirts (L & M). Our boat is a Cruiser 22, OJOS VERDES. See the account of our trip on the Chesapeake last month (p. 104 of the "What did you don on your C-Dory?" forum. Thanx, Bill & Cassie Woodhouse
 
Hi,
So glad you all signed up to come to the Gathering ! I'll put you on the list and sign you up for Tee Shirts. See ya soon ! Tracy " Dragonfly"
 
Hi,

We are planning to join the gathering in Oriental. There will be three aboard the C-GRITS: Verne, Vicki and Janet. We will be traveling from Georgetown, SC and plan to arrive Friday evening. We will need dockage for Friday and Saturday nights.

We are excited about the trip and we want to thank Gene and Carrie--they are wonderful people!
 
Hi Verne,
:) Glad you all have signed up for the gathering ! Carrie did tell me you all were coming and I have added you to the list. I hope more sign up with us in the next three weeks! I can't wait to meet everyone ! Take care, See ya soon...Tracy "Dragonfly" :wink:
 
Is anyone staying at the Oriental Marina? Looks like we'll have our boat ready for hte trip, we have a room reserved, but might try to get a slip for the weekend if that's possible. Does anyone know if there area covered/uncovered slips available? Website is kinda iffy.
This will also be our first time in tidal waters, and having to deal with channel markers, ect. The locals may line up for their chance at Americas Funniest Home Video!
 
Oriental Marina has no covered slips.

For an idea of what it looks like go to http://towndock.net/harborcam.shtml and take a look. The boats on the left side are in slips at Oriental Marina. I believe they have about a dozen slips in all.

I can not say enough good things about that place & the people there. And no, I do not get a kickback! haha.

Towndock is in the middle of the picture. You may see boats sitting there but will not be able to see the dock itself. Towndock is free for up to a 48 hour stay but there are no hookups.

Oriental has no lunar tide. The tide is wind driven & can be interesting at times!

I uploaded a couple pictures to my album from Spirit of Christmas weekend 2004. Didn't make it down for Spirit of Christmas in 2005 nor 2006, but I'll be there in 2007!
 
Yes I think a few folks are staying at the Oriental Marina that are not bringing boats. The slips at Whittakers Pointe are not covered and either are the ones at Oriental. If you want a slip at Whittakers Pointe just let Carrie or me know and we can sign you up. I'm so glad you guys are bringing the boat ! The more the merrier I say ! :D See ya soon.. Oh Oriental's #252-249-1818 hope that helps.. Take care, Tracy "Dragonfly" :teeth
 
Yep!...7 feet down they say...never saw the lake that low, and I've been going there since the early 60's.
