Sand Island, Chesapeake, Aug 27th-28th

[knarloid]

A few of us are planning an overnighter at Sand Island (just west of Battery Island, south of Havre de Grace) on Saturday Aug 27th.

It's the same weekend as the Rock the Bay Poker Run is happening the same day in the area, and a few more of the gang will be watching that and partying later at the evening events.


For those of us in NJ, we're planning to launch at Salem (Barbers Basin marina?) between 10 and 11 on Saturday morning and head through the C&D canal.



Should be space on the island to pitch small tents, and remember to bring your food, fluids and any equipment for the 2 days!

So far I think we have Ramifications, ChuckB at the island with possible visits from Demag and Droptop/Checktographer.
Anyone else in the area is welcome to join us.

John and Jen will be attending as well. I am waiting to hear back from my buddy with the 31 Fountain.

 

[ChuckB]

Im in too. I will probably depart from Burlington NJ for some extra boat ridding time I was thinking of getting in the water around 9am and can plan to meet you further down stream

 

[Ramifications]

Awesome weekend! We will definitely be doing it again!!

And then I threw a rod with 15 miles to go to home.



Glad I had a spare motor to get me back at 10mph.

glad it happened on the way home at least and didn't ruin the good times for the weekend.

Made a lot of milkshakes last weekend on the Chesapeake. We had a great time, enjoyed our weekend with chris and Satasha, and enjoyed our meet up with the spencer, kris, chuck and john and families. Was a great weekend for the boat, we went with out the kids and pushed the boat hard the hole time and it did well. Still a turd but ran great and nothing broke (knock on wood). On the way back i got to play with a 22fter with a big block in it, was a lot of fun till the guy got pissed because i was just toying with him and decided to not let out of it in rough water. After he almost killed himself and his girl and scared the crap out of me decided that it was time to stop messing with him.
