Pat, as luck would have it we overnighted at the Hampton Inn in Hagerstown Thursday. That area is just fine, and all of the hotels along Dual Hwy seem alright. Our driving time (moving fast, without a tow) was just over two hours to Chestertown, which is about 15-20 minutes from Rock...

T-shirt colors are medium gray this year, with dark blue printing (not pink!) Tank tops are an option for any who want them. We'll put in the order shortly, using Charlie's numbers (Ann & Doug, I added yours, as well as the two for Dragonfly). If anyone wants to add to the order, please let...

We also have another option for shirts this year, requested by some of the ladies - sleeveless shirts. If any of you would like that option, please let us know. We'll be putting the order in shortly, so don't delay! John

Glad to see this is shaping up so nicely!! Liz and I are trying to keep the calendar clear so we can join in a post-Lankford cruise. Count us in for now, Tom.

A taste of the Chester River for those coming to the Eastern Shore gathering.

I've run my Honda for 8-10 hours at a stretch while underway with no problems. This is typically at survey speeds, around 6 knots or less. I strap it on top of the starboard lazarette. It doesn't appear to have suffered from spray and we've not had an issue with fumes. Picture here.

I know a lot of t-shirt orders have gone to Charlie, but wanted to give all a heads-up - we have to have all orders for shirts by May 23, which is when we'll place the final order. So... if you need them and haven't let us know numbers and sizes, please do so before the 23rd. This year's shirt...

Here's a second for Valkyrie's comments on Consumers Marine. I pretty much outfit Lizzie Ann with electronics from them several years ago. Not only were their listed prices better than most others, but I asked them for a quote and it came in a good bit lower than their listed prices. Have...

For the VHF cable (assume it was the cable, not the antenna), I've used a feed through fitting with a rubber grommet that works well. You can seal sides of the hole with sealant, mount the fitting, and tighten down the grommet once the cable is through, giving a water-tight seal. Clams are...

We had a bench seat on the transom installed by the dealer - you can find pictues here.

Ditto on adequate ventilation in our 22 - even on really hot , humid days running at very low speeds or at rest, it's comfortable. I don't miss the open helm a bit (and can do without all the sun anyway!). For us, the cabin extends the season in the cold and the shade is a real plus in the...

Al, here's the rough schedule, so you can figure out which will work best. On Friday, folks will trickle in throughout the afternoon, and there will be a pot-luck and party that evening. It was great fun last year. On Saturday, some boats will probably stick around the marina, while others...

Another interesting NOAA page is their historic charts viewer, at http://historicals.ncd.noaa.gov/historicals/histmap.asp. You can put in search terms (typically names you'd expect in a chart) and it will come up with charts that date back to the 1840s U.S. Coast Survey. Charts can either...

Charlie, I added Luna Pearl's order and will call the final number in today. Looks like everything's on track!

Thanks, Charlie - will do. We'll finalize the order on Monday, so if anyone needs to add to the order, please let me know before Monday morning.
