Sounds like a good plan, Ken- glad we can keep the boats at NECC. If I have to, Ill leave the boat there and make the trip back to Boston- it would be much easier/quicker if Im not towing. Or maybe Ill just sleep in my car!

Tim,
The campground I'm staying it is called Mi-Te-Jo They're usually pretty booked, but you could check for any cancellations. Ken, Boat is still dead. I've been picking away at it & think I've got it isolated to the starter relay. Called NECC today and they put one aside for me to pick-up this weekend. |

For those of you who want to gather for some dinner, drinks, live band, pool table, darts, etc., we can meet at the Sports Fanatic. We'll discuss on Saturday afternoon, but keep it in mind.

Red Sox are at Tampa Bay Saturday. Game starts at 7:15PM. For you die hard fans, the Sports Fanatic is the place to be.

After a couple hour of staring at boats on trailers Saturday, I'll be ready to splash mine.
Anyone know how late we can put in/ take out Saturday at Everett's Cove? I'll be hitting a gas station on the way to put about 3/4 in the tank- shouldn't need to buy too much gas at the marina. Saturday evening after taking out of the lake, might just haul up to Paugus Bay and spend the night with family, then return Sunday morning. But, as usual, will go with the flow and follow the good times. Took the boat out of the lake tonight- It's sitting on the trailer and ready to go! -Brad |

Brad,
Not sure of the launch hours at Everett. Must be late this time of year I imagine. Can't wait to meet you and check out your '86. Ken |

I may be in the same boat,Jeff(no pun intended).I have yet to pull my boat out.I'm sure my neighbors at the lake will be thrilled to hear the vacuum going at 6:30 Saturday morning.I wanted to pull it Sunday,but I'm glad I didn't as I was able to use it Tues and Wed.evening in that heat!! Mike |

Hey, I might need to borrow that vacuum from you. My boat is in my yard right now, but time and heat are working against me. My carpet looks like pre-fall clean up. Maybe the cleaning/detail clinic can be at 8:00AM on Saturday!
Tim, I believe we're all going to start to head over to Milton around 3:00PM. By that time we'll all be ready for the water. Ken |

Well I hate to say it but I am out for the weekend, I have had a series of mechanical failures this week... first I let the smoke out of my new stereo head unit on tuesday, then last night the front bearing in my new alternator on the boat seized up and took the belt out with it (what a mess in the engine compartment rubber fibers everywhere) now I get a call from the garage telling me my tow vehicle has failed to pass its annual safety inspection, so have a cold one for me this weekend as it looks like I will be installing new springs, shocks, ball joints, and tie rod ends on the explorer...

JoeinNY,
Say it isn't so. There's no chance you can borrow another tow vehicle? |

The other option is if you have access to any vehicle, drive out boatless. Plenty of boats to jump in!

I thought about running up there without the boat but summer is short and the parts for the truck and boat arrive on Saturday so I better suck it up and stick around this weekend and get myself back on the water/road. As for the suppliers of my new components that lasted for less than 3 weeks (34 hours) of use, I guess I will wait to see how well they do with getting the replacement parts here on time before I start posting what I feel about them...

As for the rest of you,I'll see you all on Saturday morning ready to kick back and have some fun..... Mike |

Joe- sorry you're having vehicle problems and won't make it :( As an owner of 2 aging vehicles (over 120k each)I know the feeling- Those Explorers chew through front end parts, at least the older ones did.
Would be great if you could either borrow a truck or just drive up without the boat, as suggested above, we'll have room for ya. |

Have a great time gentlemen. I travelled 2000 miles to Greenlake and it was worth it. Maybe next year I can make it to the east coast. BKH

Thanks, Brian. I can't wait to finally meet everyone. I'm happy to have met many new friends via Keith's fantastic site. As JBear and I discussed, it's not only the great boats we enjoy, it's the great people on this site that's most enjoyable. Hope we see you at the NE reunion next year, Brian.
We'll take plenty of pictures! Ken |

It will be sad to see this thread retired after today. I enjoyed reading GL's thread too. The GREAT news is that when the snow is falling, or your temps. just drop a little, somebody will start up the Second Annual Reunion! Again, a huge thanks to Keith for pulling CC fans together in the US and other countries. May your website grow and many new friends will be found.

PS to Ken; Do you still have the plaid pants that you wore in the pics of your '80? You musta borrowed them guys from your dad. I had lots of pairs just like 'em till mrs jbear threw 'em all out. You are way to young to own shorts like that. Have a blast this weekend!

I've got your back, Hollywood. Friends don't let friends dress like this anymore. My defense is that my pic was taken in '96.
