There is a road to the marina so for sure come on by! Closest airport would be Sacramento International. Its about a 40 minute south drive on the 5 Freeway

Hello NorCal Hatteras Roundup Folk;
Captain Chuck here with more on this as of this evening. The Grindstone Joes folks needs a boat count of course. The weekend they have open is Sept 25-26.
What they provided this afternoon is this:
"...we'll be sending you a contract asking for a $300 deposit to reserve the date and asking for a certificate of comprehensive general liability insurance with a limit of liability not less than $1,000,000 per each occurrence and name Grindstone Joe’s as an additional insured during the term."
I need to find out if this is PER yacht. I'm prepared to front the $300 to reserve that date for us. You'd have plenty of time to contact your insurance providers to accommodate the additionally insured rider request.
Can I get some volunteers to organize and put forward program suggestions for each day? Is this a strictly social event or do you all want some content? We all are an expert at one aspect or another with respect to preserving the Hatteras history and our vessels.
Here's a snippit from the OpenCPN chart:

This is a great trip into the Delta River System which is comprised of the Sacramento and the San Joaquin Rivers.
I propose getting there Friday afternoon, and perhaps planning to leave Monday.
Rusty has a line on a Bar-B-Que caterer for one evening. There's also fabulous cooking facilities there for us to put on an informal al Fresco Pot-Luck Dinner with great grills.
Read all about our get together rendezvous location here: https://grindstonejoe.org/.
Coordinates are 38°6'7"N 121°29'22"W. It is a tidally restricted entrance so some planning is advised.

If you're ready to commit to the event please drop me an email: chuckbullett@gmail.com.
I'll put a cruising and activity package together. Rusty and I are really pumped about pulling all of us together. Looking forward to see you.
Chuck and Lisa Bullett
Hi Guys- Love to have you. The location is remote and rustic... it is not one of the lovely FTL Marinas that my wife and I go "boat shopping" in whenever we're there visiting her family. I suggest that if you do come be prepared for an adventure. The nearest town is Lodi and Woodbridge. Coming into the Sacramento Airport is your best bet I think. SFO and Oakland are also options, but then its about a two hour drive to get to the location.
We're working on a possible limited program. Anything you'd be interested in presenting or hearing about?
Thank You

Hey guys,
I am definitely in. The only question is how much COVID dirt I can get off of REPOSADO by September, but if necessary I will drive or ride-along.
Chuck: it would be great to catch up! Not sure about Ahn's yet, but maybe. The three Hatts mentioned included WetEver but Ron had to move to Stockton (probably restraining order reasons :-)
Jeff says that there is a 46' on F Dock so may be another owner in the mix as well. Rusty is the very best at meeting people, and he must be in touch with the other SFBay folks in Sausalito, Redwood City, Emeryville, Berkeley, etc.
I have not been checking in here much, so texts work pretty well.

Is there a hotel to stay in that is close by? John

You will get some brownie points from the wife for staying here. It is about 13 miles from the marina. This is where the Hollywood crowd comes to get away from it all
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith were recent guests at the hotel.
Thanks Ron, to expensive, I just bought another boat. Thanks Rusty, that would be great.
