Weather or knot
 
40% chance of rain, or you can look at it as 60% chance of no rain....
This event is on rain or shine, wind or calm, small craft of flat..etc
use your own judgement......if thunder storms are around just hold off,,,just show up later, most of the deck bar is under roof,,,, Sea U there

Great get together
 
Well we just got back from our Atlantic City gathering,,,all had a great time,met some new SeaCraft guys, along with old friends ,,,The weather was great ,shared some good drink and food, talked for hours,checked out each others boats,,,all in all had a great time,

Bruce & Jen (workinprogress) with their 20cc, as usual, they were there first,

John and Don (new guys to our gathering) John ran his unreal looking newer 23 up from Ocean City by way of the ocean in a NE blow, but thats what SeaCrafts are known to run in,
Don is also a known local fisher guy who owns a 29 Regulator

Joe & his wife came back again this year from Brigantine, His 1972 total restore 23cc with a custom made pilot house is something to see Looks like a brand new custom rig

Jim Vis made the long run from his slip (just across the basin from the gathering) LOL
his 25 cc rigged up for his charter business he has been running out of the Atlantic City,

I made the 15 min run from Absecon Creek with my good friend Ed in my 1970 Potter 20cc

Last but not least...Dunk that saw my post on the Bass barn ,,, even though he is not a SeaCraft owner , he just wanted to join in...he ran his flats boat all the way from Stone Harbor by way of the ICW, thats a long way, but that boat flys

Many other friends from the local boating / fishing community were there also adding to the great time...

LOOKING FWD to our next get get together......

workinprogress (Bruce) may post some photos here soon

Bruce and Jen Nice to meet you and that 20 is clean....
John and Don made the ride outfront, but, of course, no worse for wear.

Glad me and my 25' could be a part of it!

Dont know if Jim will log on here much, but yes his boat is docked right across from Scales, he runs charters out of the area,,,maybe you can make it next year....I thought you were selling your SeaCraft, are you getting another boat?

23classicny 08-30-2012 05:21 PM

I see Jim alot fishing around the inlet...his boat is awesome, the yellow look great with that SeaCraft sheer line. I had a red 76' septre i/o I kept in Brigantine from 2000 to 2006 then I sold it and got out of boating. Got back into it last year with a great newer 23' SeaCraft thinking I would keep it forever and now I have to sell it b/c I've got to start a new practice. I'm gonna miss it, there's nothing like a SeaCraft! I was all set on going to the gathering last year and I think it was the weekend Irene hit us.

jimviz 08-31-2012 01:04 PM

Yep that's me
 
You have the white 23...?
I've waved to you a few times.....never got your name though. You seemed to be out with the family most times. But if you ever fishing don't hesitate to call me(Vizability), I'm not one to hide secret spots, but with the big yellow banana I can't really hide anyway....thanks for the nice comments everybody.

Have fun this weekend...will be on bay charter Sunday and possibly fireworks trips?

23classicny 09-01-2012 01:35 PM

Thats me...were always going to Gilchrist's for breakfast across from where you keep your SeaCraft. I will see you around the bays this weekend and will def be in touch as long as I have my boat It's for sale now. I dont fish much in the summer mainly fall and spring, so I'll be in touch. Have a great labor day.

Mom was a Jersey girl. I`m so proud of the way you guys and gals are just getting things done.
I was ashamed to be an American when I saw the Japanese response to their disaster. You folks are restoring my faith. Thank you it warms my heart.

Thank you,
Sandy I need to get a new name.
