Macgregor Meet Up 03/18-03/20

Post by jaqysquared »

Hello all. Wanted to extend the invite to this board as well since some here dont do Facebook.

"Ok I updated the Macgregor Meetup event to be March 18-20th. I booked a slip at the marina(A dock #19) for the 2 nights. If anybody is interested in camping out there's only one other slip booked for that weekend. So lots of slips in dock A remaining. Cost was $54 total for the 2 nights. Would be cool to have a bunch of Macs all in one dock!

You can reserve your slip here.

Booked slip 20!

So excited. This will be our first for a lot of things including sleeping overnight!

Great idea and the weather should be at that just right point of hot and cold!

Thanks!

I'm not on the facebook group, so not sure, but how many people are going to meet up?

I'm attempting to get our boat up to snuff for the trip.  Put a bit of fire under me to get it done.  :)

Currently right now there are 5 Macs coming including yourself. Slip 18-21 and 27 are booked by Mac owners. Git err done! I bought a project 26m that's been sitting for 3 years that I'm hoping should be done by then. In fact I'm in the process of cleaning the carbs to hopefully get the motor running.

1 week until the meetup! Looks like we got lucky with the weather with the cold front coming in this weekend instead of next. Weather looking beatiful right now. I started a Discord chat room so we can communicate outside of Facebook. Here is the link if you would like to join it.

I'm planning on bringing my project 26m that weekend and might be mastless. =( Don't disown me please. =) is there any activity anybody want to do as a group on Saturday? Depending on weather maybe we can do a sail/motor to Anclote or down by Clearwater. Thoughts?
