Sounds like my brother and his daughter may make the trek from Maine for the day on Saturday. No boat just sly ski. Think he may be looking for some lessons on the sky ski

last year I learn that the "fun" increases with the amount of activities you want to learn or improve. I think some show up just to help us that are challenged in some area that they have expertise in. Some will help you even if they can't do it themselves. To me, that was the beauty of the weekend, not to mention the sheer foolishness that will erupt when the barefoot water is gone.

TBD’s are slowly being filled in… I will post up an updated food list in a minute. If we could finish filling in the blanks in the next day or 2, that would be great- that way I can backfill as necessary before people start showing up. :)
Thank you to everyone for their contributions, whatever form they take- some have even shown up early! It is much appreciated. To answer a few questions: 1. We’ll pack the yard and cove in tight, don’t worry about us running out of space- the more (boats, people, etc), the merrier. 2. By mooring, I mean an anchor and line that will hold your boat in place, at a minimum overnight... potentially under slightly windy conditions (you never know what the weather will be). The cove is relatively shallow (3-6’), and sandy/mucky depending on exact location. Bumpers are not a bad idea either, as it would allow multiple boats to raft up during the day. Milk jugs or buoys to mark your anchor are optional, but might help prevent a prop tangle. 3. Not to worry, there will be coffee in the AM… at least 3 coffee makers on site. Industrial coffee makers will not be turned away, however! Ha. Reminder: things everyone can bring: Coolers Ice Beverage of choice (beer, liquor, soda, juice, etc)… Does anybody like bloody marys (just a thought)? Also recommended (in case it wasn’t obvious) Watersports gear, if practical Towels Jeans and sweatshirt (just in case) Ibuprofen :) For those on the fence, hope you can work it out. Its shaping up to be a great weekend! If you havent spoken with me directly (pm, email, txt, phone, etc), or you havent posted your plans in this thread (even if theyre not firm), please do so- just so we can plan as best we can. I will repost the pertinent info one more time this morning. |

Yee haw!! This summer went so darn fast here we are already.
For anyone that needs anything and wants free shipping (IE my truck) give me a ring this week. I will be in the shop until 5 pm Wednesday then heading to pick up a few of our own in Cleveland as well as Jack's Amc motor on the way. I am planning on bringing a few things and if anyone needs anything else let me know IE. try on life vests, skis, etc. |

Ingredients were posted in last year's Ct.mini thread There's gotta be a liquor store somewhere between Reid's and Tyler Lake .... On a side note, I am planning on leaving the Benj compound Monday sometime around 10-11am and could drop you at Bradley if you still need to work that out. Mike |

Tim,
Count us in for what ever last minute "get ready's" Thursday evening / Friday before the masses arrive. Adam, I will try to remember some special seasoning for the bloody marys that came back from Canada a while back. Think I am going to make Kristin watch Smokey & The Bandit and Amimal House before we leave so that her appreciation of a road trip is clearly defined............ |

Greg, awesome offer but after a 12 hr drive on thurs night, I'm thinking you guys deserve a break! The goal is to be done shopping by then- if we figure out that we forgot something, HW can pick it up on his way back from the airport with the FIFA gold coins he's bringing.

Mike, forgot bout that but you gotta remember...... I'm a practical kinda guy so it would probably be more on the lines of a couple half gallons of Capt and a 2 liter bottle of Coke Zero!
I have a ride worked out on Monday but will put you down as a backup! |

Tim
I'm guessing you'll have all the appropriate tools for the standard reunion fix’s, prop changes, tune up’s, carb adjustments, camshaft swaps, bearing’s for Joe??? Is there anything I should bring in that department? |
