Sorry I didn't post earlier, had my hands full with my site today.

Capt Matt it was great to meet you, it was short but atleast we met.

Mike it was good to see you again, we need to get together soon.

The big hook up in the picture got of what ever it was, almost spooled me, chased it with the boat and when we got to it nothing, i believe it was one of those endangered bottom fish they call rocks  

Anyhow it was great meeting up with Rick and Dave again, they are great camping partners, sure won't let you go hungry, i have some pics I will post up later, but not to many because hardly anyone showed again, I'm at the point why are we even doing it anymore but that's a discussion for a different day.

I was looking forward to this event but it was not to be.  I did end up on the water, however.  I took the Cl to the last tower before the tortugas and back.  It was a nice 24 hr ride with only a few issues.  Lost the starboard genset and half of the running lights failed.  (they worked at the dock before we left)  The genset had a bad temp sensor, so thats fixed now.  The running lights have all been replaced with LEDs , so that should be fixed now.

I'm sorry i missed the get together.  I have always had a good time when I have been able to attend.  The decks on my poor boat are turning green:(  But it looks like i will have some time off soon to clean her up and burn some fuel.

I didnt see any hooters girls this time??

Doc to bad you couldn't make it but it sounds like you had quite the adventure anyway.

Hooters girls are so 2011  and we're hip you know

Doc, we'll be back one more time in your area - Nov 2012.  Usually the first week so make a big circle or note on your calendar so nothing else works it's way into this one.
I may be back down there sooner looking for my anchor - bought a big magnet at HF so I can troll for it.

Rick that may just be a good idea, go down there on a real low tide and it might just work
