Cape Cod gathering - Aug 11

[joema]

I launch my 23 scepter at barnstable harbor bichs pt 5bucks I go 1 hour after low tide 2mile run to sandy neck beautful water fishing was alittle slow today

Jim - coming in from RI / Conn, I would go to Sandwich, it's an excellant ramp, far better than Barnstable, which can be a little thin at low tide, and is only a single wide ramp, dock one side only. Sandwich is a double wide, concrete all the way down, all tides ramp, with long docks on both sides - Also, tons of parking at Sandwich, while Barnstable has limited parking, and is also about 1/2 hr further out the Cape.

Ran into some trouble with steering cable but my mechanic says it's done so we will put it in our slip tomorrow evening should be good to go for saturday

We will be coming across from Scituate might as well take the ride instead of trailering, looking forward to burning up some boat gas, I'll get her shook down evenings this week

Have fun guys. Wish I could attend....but a client of mine hired me to run his brand new 36 footer back from Nantucket. I ran it down last week and it is not a bad gig. The 90 mile trip takes about 4 hours...and then I get flown back. I can't believe I get paid to do this

You guys may want to consider moving it to the southside of the cape (protected from the northeast wind) or maybe out to the bayside of Wellfleet where you will get some protection too.
