rtrinkle,
What dates are you looking at trying to organize a gathering on the Chesapeake? Recommend avoiding the opening weekend of rockfish season. I don't know about down at the southern end, but it seems like its the absolute busiest day on the bay around Kent Island.

I could probably get away for a couple of days over Memorial Day.

I'm interested.

We are planning a trip to Annapolis May 28 to tour the Gemini factory and meet some of the owners. We could bring our 26X.

Is the Deltaville crew going to be on the Internet with their schedule? We would like to join them for a couple of days also.

Thanks,

Victor

Victor,

They have a schedule, but it is an Excel Spreadsheet. I don't know how to put one of those on here. Any ideas?

Sure... open the sheet, select a section of it to share, copy that and paste it into Microsoft "Paint" as a bitmap. Then save it as an image, send to a photo sharing site (Photobucket, etc.) and post here as an image.

Alternatively you could post the whole spreadsheet to Google Docs (or any similar file sharing site like 4Shared, DropBox, etc.) and then post a link to it.

I guess it could have been bigger, but I don't know how to do that either. Anyway, you can "view" the image and make it what ever size you need.

Hope to see you. Right now, we have went from 6 boats to 2 boats. You know how trip planning goes.
