09/21 - 09/23 - 6th annual NC Gathering

Just got my C-Dory on Weds Hope to have her in ship shape for the gathering. Whittaker Pointe Marina is where I bought my sailboat Years ago. I hope I can make it. I love the folks there.
 
Urma,
With Joan's work schedule with the Coast Guard's end of the fiscal year closeout, we will not be joining you on the water this year, but will join everyone on land at the lunch on Saturaday and for the catered meal Saterday night.
Have you chosen a location for lunch yet?
 
Rosemary, I am glad you and your first mate will join us.

Lanlocked,
Congrats on the new boat!!! Please come and join us. This event is a great way to view other boats, get some great ideas and advice. I can also tell you you will make a bunch of new friends.


Steve, I am still trying to decide if we will go back to the dockhouse or if we will try another place along the waterfront. It has not be easy to try out each spot this summer and make a choice, but somebody had to do it. I will post the location by next week.

Erma,
I'm sorry for misspelling your name...I know what it is, so I just slipped.
Thanks for the feedback on the lunch issue. The restaurant chosen last year was great for the function, as it had mooring, a waterfront view, good food and great company.
 
Erma ,We had a change of plans. We will not be staying on the boat. In stead we will be staying at The River Neuse Suites. We will be down on friday 21 sept with the boat.I hope to leave here at about 4; am to beat the traffic.
 
Neal,

Have a safe trip. We will see you on Friday.


Erma
 
I hope to make the event and meet you NC C-dory Folks but I had to take my 12 year old best buddy in for surgery today.
I found my Teddy in the middle of 60 Acres of woods when she was only about 6 weeks old. She is a Chow mix and has been my best friend for 12 years. The Veterinarian said she will have to have her stitches out in 10 to 14 days. I hope the time lines up so I can attend.
 
Lanlocked,

I am sorry to hear about your best buddy, I hope all went well with the surgery. I also hope you will be able to join us next week. If your buddy can travel he would also be welcome. The gatherings are such great places to meet other owners, see other boats and ask tons of questions.

I hope you will make it.


Erma
 
Lanlocked,

I too hope Teddy is well & doing fine. Years ago I had a Doberman who followed me everywhere I went. She was a wonderful friend, but I had to put her down.

Now I have a Siamese cat named Captain Jack who follows me everywhere in the house. Ring the doorbell and he'll beat me to the door!

Please bear in mind Whittaker Creek Marina is NOT the same place as Whittaker Point Marina.

If you purchased a sailboat "many years ago" I suspect you went to Whittaker Creek Marina.

We are meeting at Whittaker Point Marina, which has only been in business for 6 years or so.

I'll shut up now.

Al and Pam,


I sent you a PM but I also was having some trouble sending. We would love to have you two ride with us on Saturday.

Hi Erma,
Due to family matters that must be attended to Pegyy and I will not be able to attend the gathering. I will contact Ashley and cancel our slip reservations. We do however plan to meet with you in Beaufort and have lunch at which time I will pay you for thr T-shirts we ordered. My Sincere apologies for not being able to attend all of the Gathering but we are looking forward to seeing all in Beaufort.

Wayne and Peggy,
I am sorry to hear you two will not be with us for the week-end, but it will be great to see you both in Beaufort. We should be there around 11:30-noon on Saturday. I am getting excited and have started checking weather forecasts which at this time are looking favorable.


If anyone needs help early or has questions please PM me and I will be available to help.

I really want to make it. Is there a overnight boat ramp in the vicinity that would be safe to leave my truck for a day or two?

Teddy said she really wants to go too.
 
Lanlocked,

The ramp is a wildlife ramp. It is on Midyette Street. Upon driving into Oriental you bear right on the first Street past the grocery store. Ramp is at the end of the street. Speed limit is 15 miles per hour on ths little street. Most all of us shuttle our rigs over to the Marina. Somebody will help you do this on friday.


Erma
 
Hello Everyone,
For the folks who will be meeting the group on Saturday in Beaufort. We will meet at the Dockhouse restaurant on the waterfront at Noon.


See everyone soon.

Erma
 
Cat O' Mine is leaving port some time around noon from Pirates Cove over here in Manteo. We plan to travel the Pungo canal to arrive in Oriental later that evening. Depending on our timing we plan on cruising with the group Saturday morning and slipping at Whittaker Point Saturday evening. I have made reservations with the marina for slippage with 30 amp service so all looks like a go. Looking forward to meeting you all.
