To all those who thanked me for my organizing efforts, you're very welcome. I try to remind everyone that what I do is pretty insignificant considering the efforts which we all put forth to attend. I also like to remind everyone that this is not MY Rendezvous. If someone has interest in organizing or thinks that they can do something better I am eager for the help.
We got home last night at about 6:30pm. We still had time to pump out in mostly daylight. As predicted the winds were straight from behind us at 15kts once we turned south onto the bay. They were also predicted to die off around 2pm. We went wing and wing with the 145% genny poled out. Speed was good and while the winds were greater than 7 or 8 but once things calmed down below 4 knots of wind I knew that we would have to start the engine. We made it about 30 miles, almost to Cove Point, before finally giving up and motoring home the last 15 miles. I'd like to say thanks to everyone who came and especially to those who helped organize this year's rendezvous. It's great to see return attendees. Coming by boat is awesome but a special shout out to the Mitchell's who drove from Midland Ontario and to the Schwartz's who flew from North Carolina! Shortly, I'll be polling for dates and locations for next year's event. I prefer to not exclude those who have attended in the past but I also like moving to different locations and possibly dates to help accommodate those who haven't been able to join us. If you have any input at all please let me know. All the posts from the event can be seen and shared on the event page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/249336025743002/?ti=cl It is a public Facebook group if you are not a member just request and I'll add you.
