Wayne, first of all, welcome! Looks like you've been lurking for a while. Glad you're joining in.

We have a social group for California Delta and Bay boaters here. We often list our plans here, but also use the general forums for wider notification. Please join the group and subscribe to new posts so you hear what's planned.

http://www.trawlerforum.com/forums/g...+cruisers.html

Where do you keep your Hatt? I hope you can post up some boat pics when you get the chance. If you're in the area and just want to drive over to meet up with us, please feel free. The more, the merrier.

It's quite difficult to arrange get-togethers because everyone has many conflicting demands on their time. But if enough of us attempt to coordinate, hopefully two, three, or four of us can get it together at any particular time, hopefully at least quarterly.

How about Ayala (Hospital) Cove in March, the deep Delta the Fourth of July, Farallon Islands/Drake's Bay in September, China Beach in October, and ...?

Yikes. Sounds like a two to four-week trip to get there, spend some time, and then return. Got EPIRB and life raft?

We can get down there in about 38-40 hours (down hill all the way!). We can hug the coast. I have an EPIRB but not a raft...I'll just get on your boat.

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow! Our tentative ETA is 1330.

It going to be so cold this weekend, I'm thinking of drinking warm beer! We had a frosty low 30's at the house this morning. Margaritas, Lemon-cello and warm Sierra Nevadas!! Should be a fun weekend!!

Looking forward to our rendezvous tomorrow. We're in Vallejo tonight. Plan to load up with water in the morning and head out. Hors d'oeuvres at 5:00 postmeridian sounds perfect. I'll have the boat warmed and ready.

Alright!! Mahalo Moi is the party barge this weekend!! I'll bring my own cleanup towel this time!

Ray, when I arrive, I'll be headed right to the fuel dock. Please feel free to c'mon by waving your credit card.

After refueling, I'll reposition for the night.

Mark, am I going to have to take my shoes off (and keep the socks on) when I board the Mighty Coot?

Ugh wish we could go. What time are you leaving your slip Al? We can bring over that UHMW tape. We are hitting the road at 11 to get back for our carpool to the Niners game.

The boat was 48 when we arrived around 8:30 tonight. Took the webasto awhile to warm up before it started blowing. It's been going for the past hour and a half and we're up to 64. Y'all stay warm now, ya hear?!? Same goes for us being outside tomorrow night!! Brrr!!

Yes, if that's your custom! ...

and I need to get fuel too.

Ray's heater works great. He had to turn it down on our last visit. (The Coot has none except for a tiny electric which only takes the edge off. We rely on blankets and body heat.)
