Default OSO Baja Get Together

Guys & Gals,

I feel that most of you are family having talked with you on a daily basis almost for years. Would love to meet everyone in person and see all the nice boats together.

We need to figure out how we can all get together with the boats for a big Baja rally.

The biggest challenge would be location. Where is the country is close enough to make it equal for everyone to tow? I have no problem towing 6-8 hours one way, but would not like to go longer if possible.

It seems that most everyone is from central to eastern US. Norman is very nice, but there are NO hotels on the lake. Hartwell is the same, no hotels and very few resturants.

Not sure about Virgina, Kentucky and Ohio?

The coastal areas like Charleston have a lot to offer for the whole family and dockage and hotels are NO PROBLEM.

If we could find a spot that worked for everyone and pick a date at least four months in advance that everyone could plan for I think we could pull this off.

Anyone up for something like this?

Make some suggestions.

I know I don't talk on here all that much but I check the posts at leasts 4-5 times per week... a little less in the winter ( I don't like to talk about boating when i can't go and do it ....I miss my baja ):. Anyway I would love to take a weekend and do something like that. I only have one problem No Trailer for my 302. I suppose I could rent or borrow one. Sounds great.

We touched on this a little last year. I think this is a great idea. I would definetly love to meet everyone that we converse with on a daily basis. I coast is fine with me and accomodations are much better in the coastal regions. I will give all the help I can in trying to make something like this work. Let's get the ball rolling and pick a date.

Hey Fat,

There is no doubt that LOTO would be the place. I will not rule it out, but it is a LONG drive from here. I estimate 18 to 20 hours. So I would have to make a vacation out fo it.

Have always wanted to go there!

I'm in but I can't drive to LOTO. I'm only good for about a 5 hour drive - up, down, left, or right.

LOTO is about 18 hours.

Great idea, Dock. It would definately be nice to meet and run with everyone here. I'd have to rent(or buy-heavens NO! ) a trailer but with enough notice I could pull it off.
