Hi Guys,
The CT River Run is a great event organized by a great group from Scream & Fly. I am so looking forward to the run and hanging with a large crew of boating enthusiasts...

Chris,
Thanks for the offer; I really do appreciate it.
As of right now, I’m planning to ride along with my best boating bud Gregg in his 29’ Fountain.
If some how I get the gremlins worked out of my engine soon, I may just take my Velocity.

Mike,
You will enjoy the day and the trip down from Mass will be worth it. I can assure you of that. I suggest you launch in Old Saybrook under I-95. There will be quite a few that will start there.

Gary,
I believe that JCap is coming up from LI so you guys can run those beautiful Y2ks side by side. Anthony said he was coming too, so you may want to convey down from your neck of the woods too.

The count down to the season’s end has started; let’s end it on a good note…

Sounds great pat. Ill have to google the rampo and shoot it into the GPS. My grandfather lives in straford and my dad grew up around there so i should make out ok.

Hey Mike,
Are you coming down?
I know at least 3 of this group launching in Old Saybrook under I-95. Great guys and a good group to travel north on the river with.

I will be riding with my bud that own's a 29' Fountain Fever.
We should be on the water around 10am in Chester, 5-6 miles north of the I-95 bridge.
