We had 21 boats signed up, including a 47 Yacht and three 45 yachts. As you may have heard, there were two hurricanes (Irene and Lee) that washed billions of gallons of mud and millions of tons of debris into the upper Chesapeake Bay the week before the Rendezvous. This forced several boats that were coming from as far away as North Carolina and Virginia to cancel their plans early in the week. As the week went on, the Bay cleared from the north, washing the debris southward, and forcing the folks from the middle part of the Bay to cancel their plans. Even Saturday, several boats started on their way, but encountered more debris that they were comfortable with, and one experienced engine trouble. We had four boats that arrived Friday afternoon and stayed all the way through until Sunday, and another seven boats that showed up Saturday, of which five stayed the night. All in all, I think that is a pretty respectable showing under the circumstances.
The amount of fun that we had was not limited by the number of boats. :drink:
