      Hi All,

      Am planning my summer vacation – also who I'll be sailing with. Is the July 26 date firm?

      Thanks!

      Let's make the 26 July date firm. As to how many days this event should last, I think the weekend,ie arrival on Friday, and departure on Sunday might be the way to go. If anyone feels that they want to stay longer, or arrive earlier, that's fine too. As mentioned the anchorage is excellent– shallow with excellent holding. I checked with the Harbormaster and there is no limit on raft size, so we can do whatever we feel is best.

      As mentioned earlier, getting into the harbor is relatively straight forward provided you don't turn west too early. There is a bar that runs along the channel on the west side, and you must proceed far enough south before turning into the anchorage. It's all sand, but you can get hung up.

      What I was thinking was that we could do one night's dinner at a restaurant, and one night at a barbeque in one of the marinas. I will check at my marina, Maidstone Harbor, and Thatcher Stone offered to check at East Hampton point as well. I figured Friday for the restaurant and Sat for the BBQ. How does the group feel about that?

      It should be a great weekend with the opportunity to meet one another and visit many sisterhips to see what others have done to their 424's.

      Why don't we use channel 73 as our rendezvous channel.

      More info as we get closer!

      Right now I have the following boats as either definite, or possibility:

      Tor- mid August if at all
      Rich Carter-yes
      Bob Fine- any weekend
      Don Barbor-This is it- Mystic-his daughter, one of her friends, plus a date?
      Norris Larson and Janet on Easy Reach-from Maine
      Adam MacNeil- end of July-large crew with kids
      David Thompson- yes if boat is ready by then
      Thatcher Stone
      Rodd Leeds
      So, it looks like we'll have 7 or 8 boats at the minimum. Hope everyone can make it– should be a fun time!
