Pack your lunch, munchies and favorite beverage, because after the run we will head to Boaters Beach for a little relaxation. Weather permitting we will tie up and enjoy a few hours in the sun before heading back to Jackson Park at 3:00 PM.

Sounds like a really great time planned. We are going to be cutting it very close because of a trip to Colorado for 8 days but I think we are going to make it as long as everything goes smooth at Wesco with the motor.

If Dougs is done then I should be too! I'm hoping to come down for this one but I'm not all that optomistic.......I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

I left a message for Donna and Ian to call me. Heres the deal. We will be driving from MI to a harbor near Southern Chicago, maybe Hammond?? Who is launching from there or some other place close. Any input appreciated. Oh and maybe staying Saturday night too?? Keith

Keith,
There will be a bunch of boats running to Jackson Park Harbor from Hammond. Let us know if you plan to launch at Hammond so we can keep and eye out for you. Call me if you have any questions.

I think that I launching out of Pastrick because I can't fit in Hammond's gates.

Ms PatriYacht

Mark you are such a wide body

Keith I did not know you called, since I work from home I don't always have my cell on. We are not sure if we will put in around South Haven and go across by water or put in Hammond or what yet, it will depend on the weather. But we will be there on Friday late afternoon and will definately be staying the night on Saturday so we can have fun at the party, you guys should do the same. I was told we would be able to get either wall space of slips in Jackson Harbor.

I will make some calls on the slips and talk to you later.
