Ask Whalertowne which marina to use. They usually make arrangements with one in the area. They should also help out with places to stay.
Look forward to seeing you there.

The Best Western is right across the street from The Jetty. Never stayed there myself, but some friends stayed there a few weekends ago and said it was nice (pet friendly too I believe). My wife and I stayed at the Holiday Inn on the other side of Rte. 50 one weekend last year when we were having some work done to the house. It was nice and just a short walk (under) Rte. 50 to get to The Jetty, The Crab Deck, etc. The parking lot looked big enough for trailers too, but I would call. The ramp to put in is just across the narrows/drawbridge. Can't wait to finally meet everyone - hopefully the weather will be nice and the kids can stay busy on the "beach" area.

Thanks for the tips!
I wish I was bringing a boat to put in! But im not. Im attending the event with hopes of meeting some of our clients we've sold our interiors to as well as find a company that would be interested in stocking our interiors. I've briefly spoken with the owners of whalertown....very nice guys..we'll see what happens.
Im bringing my 12 yr old son with me...he's SO excited!

Mike,
Are you interested in getting some measurements and making some teak gunnel wall caps for 1984 25' Outrage? I could bring the boat to you as I am only 20 minutes away from where you will be. Let me know As I would like to get a new set made.
