Hats Off..... Barry / Patty the gathering was great, thank you for your time and effort to make the event pleasant. And thank you to all who were behind the scene to assist. Carole and I enjoyed everyone and are looking forward to more of the same.

I am with Martin, not only does the guide give you where to and sketches but they include local knowledge. Meaning what is just beyond the shoreline. And they do cover what to expect as to weather/wind effect at each spot. Good material to have on board Mike

Hi all, Count Carole and I in. We have adjusted to the new home and has such will look at the event has a nice get away. Mike

Wicker, Welcome to the area. A lot of good suggestions from other C-Dory owners. I would add by recommending reading "The Curve of Time". Without going into the book this book will only wet your appetite for more of the northwest. Mike

Okay all you Lake Powell boaters have a great time. Needless to say we would have enjoyed everyones company, the lake and weather.....but we are moving along with the buy/sell process of our homes. When all is said and done we shall be settled in and READY for our next adventure. Mike
