All,
Lady Di and I are now enjoying some quiet times in Block Island. We too had a
blast meeting fun folks and reveling in the our chosen marque.
I appreciate all the kind words and want to thank many folks for their ready
and capable help; John Read, Robert Gallagher and Richard Walter.
And, of course Rob. I think he enjoyed "purging" with us all.
While our memories are fresh I would also like to put together a debrief as to
what we did well and what we can improve, potential venues, special events,
etc.
This would be a blueprint going forward to make it easier for those who want to
step up next time (there are those who want to jump in next time...right?...I
hope...please?).
Feel free to email me your thoughts. I will then compile them and distribute.
Again. Great times. Great company. Great memories. And fabulous sailing.

Per the directive, we went boldly home. We saw gusts to 25 kts on the beam and
speed over the water at warp 8.5 (9.3 over the bottom). It was one of the most
enjoyable sails I can remember. We covered the 52 miles home in under 8 hours!
But the best part was meeting all the dedicated C&Cers and especially getting
to talk to Rob Ball. If you missed this one, you missed a good one. Three
cheers for Dave Risch... He did a superb job! I hope all had a safe and
enjoyable trip home. We did. Let's do it again.

Listers,
Greetings from Clinton, CT. We had the Enterprise screaming along at a steady
Warp 7.3 today -- then the current kicked in and we saw Warp 8.5.
My wife Ellen and I wanted to take a moment to thank David Risch for all of
his hard work in putting this all together. In fact, he did such an amazing
job, we think David should be voted in to organize one of these every year (a
little closer to New York may be nice).
It was great to meet Rob Ball, especially at the reception, to ask him all
sorts of questions about the 37+, especially on how a 40-footer got named a 37+
(as well as the 36-foot 34+). But, just being at a place with others who share
the affinity for the C&C line made the trip worth it on its own.
Hope everyone has a safe, fun, voyage home. And, I'll say it again, let's do
this next year too.
In the meantime, as you continue on your voyages, please remember our Prime
Directive:
Wherever you may go, go boldly.
All the best,
Edd
