revised poll for checkmate gathering

I'm thinking end of June into July is good for me. 4th weekends are always crazy, and I'm thinking some people may already have plans for that week end, so I would suggest excluding the 4th.
 
mid to end of june would work for me. that will give me time to tinker a little and still be ready. 4th will be crazy down there. hopefully water will start warming up by then. if we go later then we have to watch for storms.
 
ram, if you go down where are you gonna put in at? not sure how big your boat is but i am probably gonna put in at rock hall and run across the bay if your up for the ride we could meet up on 95 and run down together.

I'm not sure where I'm going to put in at yet. I will need to stop in Kent Narrows and get the trawler, so I may just put in there and tow the mate over to the Magothy behind the trawler. We could still meet up on 95, and Sim will likely be heading the same direction, so he could get in the line as well.

I don't know about Skatr, but his boat is up for sale...

How does June 23-24 sound? That is a Sat Sun... what was everyone thinking as far as days... two days, three days four?
 
I'm good for two days, not sure if I will be able to do more or not yet. What time do you think you will leave your house to drive down. I am gonna try to leave earlier but if I cant get out of work a little early I will be leaving at 9 on Saturday morning to head down. Might stop somewhere for breakfast. The dates sound good to me. Didn't see skater had his boat up for sale.
 
I will likely make a four day weekend out of it. I will head down either Wednesday night or Thursday morning and cruise for a couple days, and head to Dobbins island Friday night.

Anyone else have any thoughts on June 23-24? Anyone able to do Friday or Monday as well?
 
i will have to see. maybe i'll take off friday night and do friday to sunday and run down to red eyes if you will be around there. have to see if i can get a couple of people together since the wife won't be able to go. as for 6/23 and 6/24 im game. if the family was coming i would stay down longer.
 
Those dates work for me. I'll probaly go down fri if any one else is. Stay fri and sat night. 2 nights will probaly be max leaving the baby with grandmom. I'm close enough that I could run back get the boy and come back for a third or fourth day. Thats all to be worked out but im in for 2 nights for sure.
The wife will be coming.
 
Absolutly!
If your putting in at rock hall. Watermans crab house right there in rock hall gets pretty busy to.
 
either or is fine with me, just figured we could grab a couple of drinks :cheers:, not sure if ram will run up there or not. if you stay out over night are you gonna anchor up behind the island or stay in a marina near by?
 
Thats up to what everyone else is doing. I'm not going anchor out by myself. I can do either. If rams bringing the big boat maybe we raft off him and hang on that boat,beach till bed time. Any one know if you can camp and do camp fires on the island?
 
i think i am going to stay in a marina. that way if it is hot at night i can run my ac with not having to buy a generator. might stay at the marina right next to watermans.
 
I would preferr a marina, for the electric and bathrooms. A shower is always good after being in the water and sun all day too. I'm gonna just wait too see whats going on. If the smaller boats are pulling out for the night, who else is staying on the island, etc, ect. You looking at Rock hall landing marina?


AC Thats 'alcohol content' right:cheers:
