Hontoon Island "Potluck" Food Signup List

We have 2 potluck dinners at our Hontoon Island CBGT Someone suggested listing what you're planning on bringing so that everyone does not bring one type of dish. Rather than do it on our gathering link, please list here. In the past everyone brought enough for about 8 or so servings for each meal and there was plenty.

The two meals are Friday and Saturday at 5:15 PM

So list away........Tom
 
Thisaway/Thataway, Marie is a fixing a chocolate cake, with chocolate pecan icing for Friday night.

Saturday night, Potato Salad.

We will also bring famous crab dip for appetizers, with crackers...
 
Friday, big crock of beanless chili...
Sat, big crock of pork stew...

Installed the TOAD Charger Bob found...works wonderful, tastes great!

I hooked it up from the truck engine battery to the hitch to a harness wired to the boat helm DC bus (that is a big wire going back to the House battery rather than the 12g speaker twisted copper cable supplied...added a 15A fuse at the helm, 15A circuit breaker included for under the truck hood (2-parallel battery) link. This skips the main boat transom Blue Seas On/Off switches, but that doesn't matter since I'll only use it when trailering). Much cheaper (tho I am the Buy Quality The First Time Guy) and much easier than DIY with the VSR +10A voltage Limiter + 15A circuit Breaker + a microprocessor that Tells You What You Screwed Up with controller Flashing Light Pattern.
The Boat leg runs from inside the protected hitch tube to boat via the windlass chain tube to inside the V berth thru the anchor hatch under the cushions to connect INSIDE the v berth via hard wired connector to the helm +/- bus terminals...all this is outside the elements.
I love it... thanks again Bob, your advice and vast experience is always appreciated...no other Brat offered this great option!
I'll replace the boat link with proper Marine wire after retirement next summer, but 12g twisted copper speaker wire should last longer than that on my boat.
Cheers!

Sheesh, it is not really a "potluck" if you have to say what you are bringing! The Upper Left Coast CBGTs are true "potlucks" and it has always turned out fine!
 
Pat....you are right..Potluck is Potluck. Some folks were posting what they were bringing on the main St. John's gathering link and I did not want to get mixed up there. Sign up here is voluntary and optional. It is kind of fun to see some of what's coming. I mite need two plates and my bigger belt! Tom
