I love the idea of meeting at Sandy Point and making a run to Dobbins Island to raft up or Kent Island. Just made the run to Kent Island Saturday and it was beautiful. Anybody have any idea what time of year Whalertowne hosts their event?

Just received word that Whalertowne will NOT be hosting their event this year but plan on having one early summer 2013.

Bummer about Whalertowne. So should we make a Sandy Point date?

I'm game - The boat is wasting away this year. It would be great if we could set a target / minimum of boats to show for this rendezvous to show Whalertowne that it's worth throwing events. I went to the last WT event, the weather was bad but only a handful came out. Can't blame them. Gotta support the event if you want it to be held. Start counting.

If we are talking about the 8th, I am tentative as I am waiting to hear on whether or not that will be the finalize date for a pending medical procedure for a family member…if not I’m in. Let’s get the count up! Suggestion on the day’s event? Meet up at Dobbins, Kentmorr (beach, restaurant, tiki bar), other suggestions??? Where will folks be launching from (may help to determine where to meet).

How many people have we got interested in meeting up at this point? Lets get a count, and then find a date that works for the group. Perhaps we start a thread through the Rendezvous Central Map?
Lastly, I was the guy that suggested the 8th, but due to Military obligations that date got jacked on me.
Perhaps:
Aug 26th
Sept 15-16
Sept 22-23

Kentmorr might work for us, we're just across the bay on the South River - it woould depend on the date and weather.

I'm very interested in doing a meet up, but I can't do September 8th. Kentmorr would be nice, my wife used to work at the marina fuel dock when she was in college.

So it looks like the 8th is out and Kentmorr is OK (which is a nice run across the bay, or from Sandy Point or Matapeake)? I count 9 people interested (5 really interested). Let get a date and count finalize.
I will swing by Kentmorr when I am up there this weekend to see if they would be amenable to “reserving” us the sea-wall for dockage and maybe a couple of picnic tables on the beach/tiki bar area…I am sure they will want a count and date though…

Count me in. Kentmoor would work for me. Of the three dates mentioned by gerobertson only the last (Sept 22-23) is a possibilty for me.
I'd be running the Montauk up from the St. Michael's area.

Defiantly interested , but Sundays work best for me. I have children in sports on Saturdays.
I know the where abouts to Kentmorr, but no details. Is there a launching ramp? If not, where’s the closest?

I am stopping by Kentmorr this weekend to see what can be done. Do we want to plan on the 22nd, 5- 10 boats?
Donp - not sure which direction you would be coming from, but there is Sandy Point on the West side of the Bay Bridge and Matapeake on the East side/Kent Island - Kentmorr is south of Matapeake.

Jollyrog305, I will be coming from the western shore, but Kentmorr looks like a great location… What works best for everyone, 22nd or 23rd?

Either of those days (22nd or 23rd) is Ok for me. Time? 10 AM, earlier/later?
Don, earlier you mentioned a preference for Sundays (23rd). Is that still true?
Perhaps this should now be entered into Rendezvous Central.
I am trailer-less so I'll be running the boat up from the St. Michael's (Miles river) area if anyone would like to run alongside.

As of now I am available to do either the 22nd or 23rd. I think that getting something up on the Rendezvous page would be a great idea. Might create some more involvement as well. Is anyone wanting to take the lead on that?
