How about the August time frame for this years meet as the fishing may be a bit better?

Make it the end of August, I might just get a wild hair and trailer-up! Bug (Lobster)season starts August 6th down here.
which puts me out for the first of the month. Shoot Bill came down to us, one of us have to come to you!!

See ya, Ken

I keep my 23 cc in the Oyster river in Chatham and it becoming an icreasingly tricky place to boat,there is one square mile after another of very shallow water that is constantly shifting.Great fishing but a tough place to have a gathering unless it was inside of Stage harbor.

What about Vineyard Sound? Oak Bluffs Harbor would look pretty good filled with SeaCrafts. For people that are trailering it will be a-lot closer than Chatham and there are many ramps with easy channels & harbors to navigate. Falmouth's new Inner Harbor ramp is excellent with ample parking.

The later it is the more chance I have of being there with mine

I hope there is an inshore SBFT run again

I'm likin this - Vineyard sound works, too - though the albies can be pretty finicky - but especially with a crew, we could easily pop down to the Hooter, Wasque area, or stay inside, depending on conditions -

Just a note, though, Vineyard Sound tends to get a little wind blown in the afternoons, and can get downright snotty - been there, done that

"Just a note, though, Vineyard Sound tends to get a little wind blown in the afternoons, and can get downright snotty - been there, done that"

That's why we all have Seacrafts!....LOL The nice thing about the Vineyard Sound is if the wind does pick up there's plenty of great fishing spots that are protected from the wind. If it's nice there's a good shot of school bluefin not far off the backside, we did well on them last summer, but they don't always come in tight.
