COMPAC CONVERGENCE 2008?

[Bob23]

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
   Yeah, that got your attention. For a tentative date, how about Saturday, August 16th? Looks like a full moon will set on Saturday morning, at about 5:30 which will mean all Friday night will be illuminated, God willing.
   This could be a Friday to Saturday convergence or Sat. to Sunday or Friday to Sunday! As I mentioned.... no real schedule...come and go as you please. Isn't that what sailing is all about? Relaxation and a freedom from schedules (at least temporarily)?
   Write back with feedback on this date- it's certainly not cast in concrete!

Bob -
You found me again. I'm the 23 w/a dark blue hull from BHW. I really wished I made last years trip to Tice's. My crew decided it was going to be too rough to stay(Very breezy day/night). I've already got the green light for this years trip with or without the crew! I'm just getting the boat ready for another great season. I'll be in the water in 2 to 3 weeks.
I got a new main from Moorhouse near the end of last season and didn't get nearly enough time on it. What a difference. Are you moored off the cove with all the sunfish's? I sometimes launch mine there as well. I also anchor over there off of south 2nd when I don't feel like going to the ship bottom sand bar.

Can't wait to sail again

Hi Steve:
   Yes, I remember seeing you over there a couple of years ago. Maybe back in my Seapearl days. My Pearl had Tanbark sails (also Moorehouse) Do you recall?
   Yes, that's me moored in the cove, the furthest one out. She carries a white riding sail while moored. We also have a sunfish there and my son moors his 1970 Irwin Freespirit sloop there. And a old wood rowboat.
   FYI- the unofficial name of the cove is Swan Cove. I see swans there every winter, the cove had no name so it seemed to fit!
   If you are ever over there, I drive a green Tundra. Stop and say Hi. Hope to see you at the convergence!

Curtis:
  We're shooting for 8/16 which is a Saturday. Some could arrive Friday, some Saturday. It's a low key affair. I picked 8/16 because of the full moon which is either on Friday or Sat. Hope to see you there!
Bob23, launching today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks.  I hope I can make it.  This year has been insanely busy but maybe things will be more normal then.

I'll check back with you for details later on if it looks like I can make it.

Cheers,

Curtis

PS. Came across a CP16 locally in need of TLC.
Good thing the Admiral quickly smacked me down or I'd have it.

[Bob23]

   Yes, the Admirals do have a way of thwaring our plans. Who do they think they are, Admirals? I wonder what that guy would take for that 16, Kev? Ouch!! Just got hit by MY Admiral!!
   Glad to hear you have a slip...where? Any others available? See you on the sandbar!
   Bob23, still siding!

Groovy!

Sad news to report, won't be able to attend this years gathering. Instead I'll be headed off for family vacation.

Have fun!

Since things kinda fell apart as 'Real Life' took its toll on the 'Sailing Life'.
We are looking to set another date for some time in July.
Keep your fingers crossed.
