2018 Muskoka Checkmate Run

Once again "Muskoka" is arranging a great day for us who are Checkmate enthusiasts. A tour of the 3 Muskoka Lakes with lunch at Turtle Jacks in Port Carling and post run refreshments at a private cottage on Lake Muskoka. All sizes and styles of Checkmate Power Boats welcome to attend. This run is about 100-110 miles taking about 6 hours start to finish. The average speed depends on conditions and number of boats, the goal being a safe enjoyable ride.

Here are the details.
-----------------------------------------
I am pleased to invite you to attend the 2018 Muskoka Checkmate Run
When: Friday July 20th 2018; meet@ 9:15am, departing at 10:00am
Where to meet: Gravenhurst Wharf, Gravenhurst, ON
No entry fees: Drivers will sign a waiver and attend the drivers meeting @ 9:45am. We will meet at Gravenhurst Wharf public dock.

For those trailering, great free boat launching facilities and trailer parking available. Meet on the water at the docks just near the Steamships.
 
will be good to see some familiar faces.
should be a good run. May be shorter than previous years but with more scenery.
 
Like to make it back up, but won’t be this year. I work that Friday and Sunday. Have fun!
