Hi Zach ! I'm up for a meet , as long as it's not a Holiday weekend (due to work) . Black Snowslide has started a similar thread ( SE New England rollcall) . I guess figgureing who is interested and where to meet is key before when . Most weekends work for me and salt / fresh isn't a concern for me . Everyone else?? ; Lets hear from ya ! peter

3rd week of Audust is a No-Go for me as we are boating in Lake George. Any other time count me in. Are you thinking fresh or salt water?

A great Saturday is the last Saturday in July. There is a Band on a barge at this little island in Pocasset Harbor

Pics from last year. All the randome files.

The home page http://www.bassackwardsrace.com/

It is a well protected harbor, Beach, and about 3000 boaters, Down side is Most of the boat ramps require a 2 mile trip across a narrow part of Buzzards Bay. There may be better launch sites but I have not done my home work.

Love the idea of a GTG.

Re: New England Get Together

I'll be open anytime, But if you think about it you have july 4th vaca, then labor day vaca, So best for more people to go would be prob last weekend of july threw 2nd/3rd weekend of august just my opion. But like i said im open whenever. And im pretty sure hartford dosnt have any place to dock and i def wouldnt wanna jump in the water there.

Salt / fresh no matter to me ! B.S.S Keep reminding me of pocassett!!! That sounds like fun -my last trip of the year I went from the Weweantic river to cleaveland ledge and back on 1 tank so that gig should be a go:D .peter

A buddy of mine has a Stingray, and for the longest time (up until the economy took a dump), the local dealer would have a rally/get together on Mashpee Pond. I've never been there, and it would be quite a hike, but I hear it's really nice with clear, clean, deep water.

Re: New England Get Together

Guys,

I am definitely up for a GTG, as of now I don't have too many spoken for weekends in the summer but that changes fast....

I don't care either way about where we go... someplace on the CT river... in the sound... or someplace else... ether way I am down...

Re: New England Get Together

Either of the last two weekends (sat or sun) of july would work best for me. About the hamburg cove, I have only gone in there once, it was very nice and a lot of people say it's a great place to anchor. Anyone else have experience in there?

The pot luck sounds like a great idea...

Sounds like a blast, can't wait to get the boat out....
