turning 20 Scepters into submersibles....

Tell me about it!! Talk about "Victory At Sea". [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Scott took some nice pix of EBEACH and I underway, so hopefully he'll post them when he gets home. Jim did a great job of keeping us afloat, so many thanks to him.

Once again we had a great time, with a better boat turnout this year. Let's see, there was Blizzard's 23 CC, yachtjim's 23 CC, cSickNick's 20 Seafari, EBEACH's 20 Sceptre, Chris Downey's 23 Sceptre, Roger's 20 MA, and thedink's 23 CC. Plus Trayder's good old Thunder Pig serving as the "committee boat" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

Highlight of the day was dragging anchor and having 5 boats all tied together powering up to reset. Very nice work by each captain. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

On top of the boats mentioned, we were joined by Capt Chuck, SEAFARI, Scott, John R, and Ed Mancini showing up later in the evening.

Many thanks to Jason and Nadine for their outstanding hospitality and for preparing some kick a$$ bluefin for dinner.

It was great to meet yachtjim, Blizzard and Roger. You all have sweet boats. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Everybody else's boats weren't too shabby either. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

As soon as I get the pix off my camera, I'll post a couple.
