Birds on the Bay Formula Rendezvous 2010 RECAP (Pics)
 
On Saturday July 24th we had our first stab at trying to organzie a owner organized Formula Rendezvous on the Barnegat Bay in New Jersey. We did a pretty good job with around a month of getting the word around and had 9 boats full of great people. Thanks to Formula for sending out little goodies to give out and hopefully next year we will get the word out earlier and have a little more support from Formula. To all those that showed up, it was a great time and a first of many to come.

Here are some pics of the day.

BowenCT 07-26-2010 06:52 AM

Nice pics, looks like a fun day.

What model is the SR1 parked all the way on the outside with the blue race-checkers graphics?

I.D.C.E. 07-26-2010 07:40 AM

It definitely was a fun time. That boat on the end was a 2000 271 Fastech not sr1

C_Spray 07-26-2010 08:50 AM

Great job! We Chesapeake Formula owners need to get on the ball now....

J.B. Marshall 07-26-2010 10:37 AM

Looks like a great time was supposed to be there but the heat wore me out last week.Got backed up and worked late Fri night, next time.

Looked like a great day on the water! Thanks for the pics.

axapowell 07-27-2010 12:18 PM

Nice... I'll plan another one in the 1000 Islands if there is any interest?

Twins can help too!

It was definately a great morning and afternoon. We all had a blast. Well worth the trailer ride down and back. The trip home was a walk in the park. Had the 292 back in the Delaware at Trenton Marine before 7 on Sunday.

Special thanks to Tom for organizing the event. You did an awesome job, in a short amount of time. I wish I could have done more. Tony, it was a pleasure being rafted up next to you. You got an awesome looking 292. Definately would have liked to have seen some more Formula's though. We kind of ran out of room with when all the 40 footers showed up. I'm sure some more probably would have joined in if we could have fit them. Need some SR1 & Sun Sport representation, we had the PC's, Fastech's, and Super Sports.

We'll definately have to do it bigger and better next year. Just tell me where to be, and what I can do to help.

enjoyed your company as well, it was just a fun day all around. we have to try to make it bigger for next year. there were tons of formula boats all around us. keep in touch

Great pics, great people, and a perfect day!!! Thanks for the organization man. The summers not over and there is a lot of bay to cover, we'll be out there this weekend somewhere between F-cove and the lighthouse!!! We are looking forward to meeting up with everyone sooner than later so spread the word......

Splitdecision271 07-29-2010 05:33 PM

I've been considering the move down there for the 292. Difficult not having a shore house to keep the boat. Need to find a high and dry service for a decent price. Would love to boat down there every weekend, but for right now Trenton is just more economical. I have considered coming down for a full week, but we'll have to see.

Tom's dad had the quote of the day: "Never met a Formula owner you didn't like".

I guess I know who to ask first if I go Bigger and want to sell my lift.Its my 13000lb lift in a marina in Beach Haven.The slip is rented but can not fit anything more than a 29.
I do know some one who will in and out with a travel lift for like 120 ft. for the season also.

Panic Attack 07-29-2010 11:59 PM

there are a marinas that will get you in and out, marinemax in beach haven has rack storage but they are further south. if you have a trailer to put the 29 on you can try eastdover marine (goose creek, toms river) speak to Val. or typhoon marine (kettle creek,toms river) they should have lifts for rent. also try drum point marine in brick, speak to jimmy, and finally in silverbay coty marine. its a start. good luck.

Marine Max won't rack anything over 27.

They are trying to create a boatel facility in Forked River but that's still some time out. On the west coast of Florida that is all they have. If you have a trailer you drag it to Latitudes and drop it in for the day.

Panic Attack 07-30-2010 10:11 PM

I hear latitudes is pretty cheap too and marine max...... well, lets just say i'd rather not see anyone spend money there.
