Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Pat,
Mark & I are going to the North Channel again in late July. We hope to be back to lower Lake Mi by early August, but mid to late August would guarantee our participation.
I can't wait to see the Hatt Trick.
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
How does Goderich, ON sound? Good run for MI, OH, and western NY. I'd be in with a crew and room for 2 pxn's from Lake Erie. Lake St Clair/ St Clair River would be good and could help with reservations at several marinas in Lake st Clair, St Clair River, Goderich, lake Erie Islands. Lake MI would be too far via boat for us, but could drive (only 1 week vacation). If Lake Erie Islands are an option - I would be happy to assist with docks at a few places. We went through this around last year... Let's make it happen. Thanks PPat! Btw- earlier in August the better, mid-August works. Late august gets tough.
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Ok, mid Augest looks good. Canada is out. I dont have a passport and I doubt Bill will take the Hatt Trick that far. This is just the beginning of negotiations... anymore suggestions
Remember... travel by boat is not the only way! yes...seeing everybody's yacht is great but meeting each other is important also.
Im not even sure where some of those places are Tophat. We keep trying. I need more imput guys!!! ppat
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Well? Whats up with you guys? I only have 2 responses so far. I realize it will be the wind-up for the end of our season but I cant think of a better way to wind up the season. We all talk on this forum like friends and help each other out.... wouldnt it be great to put some faces to the names?
MC Chris...how about it? Eric and Akin... how about it? Trojan Bill, Stratplan61, Spartonboat1, Howard, Maynard? What about it. All I am asking for is one weekend. If ya cant come by boat then come by car, plane, motorcycle... hell for the energetic...bicycle.
Let's do it this time!!!!! ppat
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Sounds great to me! I think some of the slow response may be due to the season and some due to August being a long way down the road, but starting the ball rolling early is great! I would love to be a part of a get-together, anywhere from Chicago to Cheboygan (MI, not Sheboygan, WI) Let me know what I can do to help. Btw, nice job on the boat! Howard in West Michigan
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
When I saw that thread title, I just knew it was either somebody's birthday or... never mind. LOL
Maybe if the timing is right, I can actually bring a Hatt to such a gathering seeing as how that 55C is still sitting in Clearwater awaiting a trip to Chicago this spring.
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Cheboygan Michigan would be a great choice and I will vote for mid August. Our Hat is in Miami, but my wife and I would drive up for a day or two.:)
Re: Coming out Party or GLR
There is a good chance we could meet you in Cheboygan, MI as well. Looking forward to warm sun in Michigan some time!

Re: Coming out Party or GLR
Sorry for the late response, have been on-the-road for business, just getting caught up. Homeland Security doesn't seem to slow down. Last few days in Marquette - just a little 'frisky' up there, brrrrrr! Pam and I will attend wherever, most likely with the boat, depending on your final location. I look forward to a little grip'n'grinning with you guys, lot's to learn and a good excuse to get rid of some rum?
