2017 Trawlerforum Gathering

[David Rive]

Well the get together is history. What an excellent time! And to prove this isn't just a "guys" thing see the attached photo of the lovely ladies in attendance.

Ladies gone wild!

I don't think the guys were drinking.

That divided gender grouping reminds me of the new members orientation at the Texas Mariners Cruising Association about 25 years ago. The new members were divided by gender. We males discussed crossing the ship channel spoil area, good places to cruise, etc.

The females talked about how to cruise safely. About halfway through, one of the female new members asked the speaker: "Are the men getting the same lecture? My husband will never believe me otherwise. He won't listen to me."

I trust this didn't happen to y'all. We all listen to our wives, right?

[David Rive]

Absolument!

 

[Sailor of Fortune]

Irvs "Gotcha" is the first Grand Banks I have ever seen with a stripper pole! I'm not saying it got used last night, (or saying it didn't) but mums the word. If you didn't attend, you don't get to know.

Can anyone match the faces with TF manners? Would be interesting to put a name with the faces.

 

[Bigsfish]

Steve. Watfa says her pole is made for her and no photos are allowed, she's been known to hang upside down sans clothes and hands! LMAO

Greetings,
Mr. 01. I've figured out some of the guys...Sleepy, Grumpy, Dopey, Sneezy, Larry, Moe and Curly but the rest are anonymous...The ladies? Smart to stay away.

And I meant members not manners obviously.

I would party with any one of those MFers!!!...oh I mean TFers!!!! What a great time. And I promise I will bring rum next year. We were (fish out of water" flying in and unfamiliar...although I think I could have probably found some rum if a little effort was put into it. I think Wendy and I put a pretty big dent in the rum supply of two different boats. Thanks again fellas!!!

You probably greater all the guys Shen they first joined up so I would suggest you just place a Ms in front of those names. Simple, done.

 

[cardude01]

Awesome. Thanks.

I want Irv and David Rive with me at the bar when **** goes south. [emoji23]

 

[RT Firefly]

Greetings,
Mr. Bf. Sorry, don't quite get your meaning. Smart phone posting?

 

[Bigsfish]

Baker - pretty big dent? I've never seen anyone drink 8 ounces of rum in a tumbler numerous times.. LMAO. That what it was for, my friend gave it to us to sample the world and since you fly the world I assume it is the same thing. ��

 

[Bigsfish]

RT. Sorry, still on the boat getting ready to anchor.

I meant to say you greated all the members with their first post, that being the case and since you could name the guys by their behavior perhaps just placing a Ms in front would work.

 

[Moonstruck]

I gotta set this straight. Sailor of Fortune is Capt. Jack. Carry on.

 

[Bigsfish]

Don if the Captain doesn't show up with his own PBR does he deserve the title of captain or perhaps, never mind he's a big dude best not to mess with him.

You really did a great job on this years gathering and I know you said it was like herding cats but I think it was harder like herding ants. Thanks!

 

[Sailor of Fortune]

Watfas' pole but I hope Don asked permission before he performed..... Seriously, Irv, Watfa and Ahmed put on a great party enjoyed by all of us!

Calm down now Steve

 

[Sailor of Fortune]

Calm down now Steve

LOL, I guess so...

 

[Baker]

Dammit!!!

 

[Sailor of Fortune]

No worries John Baker! We all had a good time!!! Can't wait for Don to send me the $1000 bucks for the PATS winning bet we had. ..

 

[LaBomba]

Great pictures David, but the guys look a little subdued. It did pick up though, and I agree Irv, Matfa and Ahmed were great hosts and Don did a bang up job of organising.

 

[Sailor of Fortune]

Good thing we aren't sharing the REAL pics.....

 

[Bigsfish]

Allan

Thanks for the kind words but Don should get the credit for everything. He did a great job as the major domo, it wasn't easy to accomplish this great party. Larry was his assistant and they both hosted us on their boats.

Hmmm. Nice innocent photo, but while you guys were heating up the docks, it looks like as the sun went down, the tea party became a Long Island Iced Tea party!

 

[FlyWright]

Wendy and Lou really look like they're enjoying themselves!

 

[HopCar]

Bigfish, now I know who you are! Did you hear I sold the store today? Next year I'll be able to go to the gathering.

 

[Northern Spy]

Wait a minute. None of you look like the preconceived visages I have in my head.

WTH?

Reverting back to my imaginary friends.

Edit: Except for Baker. He looks like "Baker".

It'll be tough to 'unsee' that picture.
