New Jersey Compac sightings & fireworks

[Finbar Beagle]

Folks,

On my way out of Kettle Creek to see the fireworks yesterday evening, I came across a CP 23-3 (I think) leaving from the southern fork in the creek.  "Aimee (something) Rose",  (yes, if I only had a Brain,  with memory).  I shouted the website link, while himself and his crew, tried to coax another knot out of her furling  jib, and escape the mad bearded bellowing Irishman...

So, 3 Compac at least, on north Barnegate Bay, Suncat, Cp-23, and my 19.

Big fireworks near West end of rt 37 bridge, and 360 degrees of smaller shows (beaches, yacht clubs, community centers) made it great to see, and from boat, no need to look up.  Wind at @8mph kept us moving.  Dragged rudder in liquid mud a few times, but no real issues with the dark.

Looking forward to next night sail...
