The CPBA is planning its first formal (casual) event. Anyone who is considering joining the CPBA is invited to join the current members for a lunch/social to see what the club is about. Boats are optional for this event but highly encouraged, even just on the trailers. Come down and meet some representatives from the club and share ideas.
See the link for more information.

Thanks, we hope to see you on Saturday May 14th!

The CPBA will be meeting for "lunch" at the Bruce and Johnson's Brewers Yard in Branford (aka the Dockside Restaurant) at 1:00 for an introductory social. The tide is low at about 3:00 and Branford's ramp is tricky then. We figure we'd meet around 10:30, take a cruise around the Thimbles, then meet up for lunch. After lunch, a quick burst to New Haven would be the second run of the day. By the time we get back to the ramp the tide will be favorable. Then we'd trailer back to the marina/bar for some stories, etc. Everyone out of the water by 5:00, with plenty of time to enjoy the evening. Bob P. has a 31' Larson there and is willing to host the BYOB crowd that evening. Remember, you don't need a boat to meet up. Come early or come late. Lunch or dinner, Christian will be there all day and night to accept applications from new members. Look for the Sutphen and the Larson on "F" dock. Remember all new members get a free CPBA decal or classic CPBA T-shirt.

C call me tonight!

I need to make some plans with you for tomorrow.
