[John R]

For bringing your boats and hosting all of us for a great day on the water and at the cookout!

Trayder - excellet job putting this together. Had a blast and it was great to meet alot of you for the first time.

Ed, thanks for bringing the Mako and providing the butt of many jo..., I mean, representing the legions of Mako owners out there [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] - Seriously, it was nice to see your boat - I likes! And the Suzuki trollability factor is awesome....

Definitely a HUGE thank you to Jason and Nadine for hosting our little get together this year. Beautiful house by the way. The 20 CC looks sweet, you must post pics for those that weren't able to see her.

It was great to see Jim, Scott, John, and Ed again, and it was nice to meet Jim Curto and Chris Furnari. Nick, I didn't get a chance to say hi when you swung by off Fort Adams, sorry about that. The new top looks awesome - nice work Don!

Ed, many thanks for taking me along in "Trident". We'll have to get together again and put more use to that tube-trolling machine!

Hope we do it again next year, and this time I will have a boat with me [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] .

Jason & Nadine - Many, many thanks for your warm hospitality. I definitely had a great time.

John & Scott- Glad you had fun on Trident. I'll be taking care of that slight problem [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

John- You left your yellow windbreaker and inflatable lifevest on the boat. I gave them to Jason. You also left some red trolling tubes on the rods....do you want me to mail them to you??

Scott- let's try and get together for a night of fishing in the harbor sometime.

Trayder,

Thank you again for hosting the gathering. It was a great time, though abbreviated for us. My father pasases along his thanks as well. Sorry we could not stay longer - had another 60 or so miles to go to Bass River that night.

Hey Guys,

My apologies for not having more time to stop and chat. This week i have put some serious miles on the trailer this week and light hours in the sleep category. Needed to take 3 days off from work, but we made it.

Picked up the boat from Don in NJ on Tue at 9pm after 8 hrs(NJ tolls ... drag), turned around and was back in Boston at 6am on Wed(made it hockey at 7!, Crashed at 9). With all the rain, finally a break to install the motor back on Friday(up til 5am wiring the new top stuff etc).

So, finally splashed in the water at 3pm on Sat in RI. At 3:15, a double shot of OUZO.

Anyway, i can say how very pleased i am with the new top! Don did and exceptional job. It was definitely worth the trip .... even with the NJ tolls.

Looking forward to next year.

Let's see if i can post a few pic ..... if not, i will try later. - Nick

Ed,
I left my rain gear on your boat, give me a call at work - (617) 483-3472. I called your cell this morning and left a message.

Hey Nick.. No pictures..They are not showing up.. send them to John R...

[cSickNick]

Ah, worked for me. But i used Yahoo and noticed this note;

"Please note: If you are using the free Yahoo! Photos service, public access to your high-resolution images will no longer be available. However, public sharing of your screen-size images will still be available."

Nothing is for free .... especially related to boating.

I posted them to another site .... does this work?
