Ontario Sailors Rendezvous 2013

[seahouse]

Since I will be there sans Mac (inappropriate tow vehicle for the distance- etc etc) you might not be so outnumbered Tom.

Assuming it's even in the water by then (sigh) - my boat's still in storage.

[Highlander]

I'm back! What's the date....we are in if it's not during our trip to Montreal for a concert.
Sorry I've been MIA for a bit....things were hectic with traveling for the winter and when we got back, it was right to the boat stuff. We're on it everyday if the weather is nice;-)
Ok Beene just messaged me, I believe these dates work perfect. Can't wait:-)
YAY!

They're alive!! Good to hear from you - thought we'd lost you for a while. Now we have a pilot for episode 2 at the wall. Make sure you book Port Credit a.s.a.p..

It's good to be back:-)
Good call, I will book tomorrow!
Are we getting spots together I assume? Not as spaced as last time;-)

[beene]

I hope so Cat

They know we are coming

We chose to book in there during the week this time as it is less busy and should be no prob to get slips together

Leon from SFO will most likely be joining us again as well

I have been in touch with Dave, the X I rescued last get together with the Dead engine....
He is slipped in the Lakeshore club

Said he plans to meet up with us as well

So 1 more X to the pile

This year I plan to keep things much more organized

There are many that have slips near by
What I hope to do is have a set time during the day when we all meet up on the water at spot X
Then once all have arrived, sail together wherever the wind blows
Back to credit village, or their respective slips elsewhere
Then meet up at an agreed upon restaurant of choice at time X

How does that sound??

Just a couple more boats, and we could do this for afternoon cocktails:

[Tomfoolery]

Oh, you mean there (green arrow - ignore the red pushpin).

Ain't google maps great? I didn't even have to fire up the nav software.

Monday late morning probably won't work for me, as I'm trailering from the US, or crossing by water. Probably won't be there until late that day. Have fun without me, though.

Unless I travel on Sunday. I'll have to see about that.

[beene]

Look!!

Highlanders boat will be at the Toronto Tall ships meet up!!



Just look at that sprit with all those head sails!!!!!!!!
