May go to my dad's beach house on Ocracoke Island. If not, I'll be out. Tim's is having a Pig Roast all weekend, and there is supposed to be a real good band at Gilligans on Sun.

Excursion is talking about coming up to see Worx on Sunday. I may be up for it too.

B&P and Joey, where is the best place to find a nice marina to tie up and sleep in after the Worx finish up on Sunday night, near Gilligans?

I will be out in the black thunder sunday. And i might do the patuxent on monday.

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
Sydwayz, not sure how nice you want, but the closest real marina would be Goose Bay. Nice people, have gas 93 octane and only 5 mins from Gilligans. I am sure you have stopped there on one of the poker runs.

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
As long as my boat starts up and runs I'll be out but I havn't even fired her yet. I have all most everything done just have to change the oil. But there will be people over at my house all weekend so I won't be going far away.

There will be a few this year. The first is the second weekend in June. Info is at www.timsrivershore.com. There is an overnight run scheduled later in the year I believe in August. Leaves from Gilligans and overnights in Solomons Island.

We are putting in at Aquia Creek on Sat. morning and running up to Occoquan Bay and staying at Occoquan Harbour marina Sat night, good rest. & bar there. Sunday heading down the bay to Gilligans the Worx start at 3:00-7:00 and then going too Cobb Island 15 min. ride for the evening, staying at Shymanskys marina, Bill told me they have good food and nice docks. Jim & Crystal in the BT will be joining us.

Is the "WORX" band at Gilligan's the same band that plays at "Mango's at Smith Mt. Lake ???? If so they are a great band!! We have a group of boats going to Port Kinsale Marina Friday for the weekend,but if the WORX is playing at Gilligan's we will definately be back Sunday.

dreamboater 05-25-2005 11:40 AM

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
Thats the band, seems to be very well known in VA. Also the same WORX band that played at the Richmond Poker run last year. Best cover band I have ever seen.

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
Gilligan's will have the shuttle boat running. The pier will only hold about 15 boats. The rest anchor out and shuttle will pick you up. A word to the wise!!! Coast Guard pulled me over last week end for a routine safety inspection, not far from Gilligans, they indicated they will be out Memorial day weekend. While they were very cool about the insepection and everything was okay, last Labor Day I was pulled over 3 times in the same day, actually me twice and my son once, but we were anchored and rafted up. 2 by MD DNR police and once by the Coast Guard. Not trying to scare anyone, if you come to that section on the river, have your stuff together. Have fun hope to see everyone at Gilligans.

Where is Craig??

When are we gonna see the new ride?

Sydwayz 05-26-2005 08:57 PM

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
Plan is to run the Potomac on Sunday, and hit Gilligan's in the evening. I am going to try and get a slip where James and Jim will be.

Then going to pick up MS on Monday morning and head up to Alexandria for brunch and into DC to watch Rolling Thunder from the River.

they do have good food, as does Capt Johns directly across the street. be careful coming in the potomac side of the sound, kind hug the poles the channel isnt real wide. You may see my Tiger there in the sound if you do ring my cell 410-746-0020. we may head up to gilligans sat night.

I'm home... got back from Florida last night with my new trailer for the TG. The new boat will not be ready for at least a month with the new engines, so we will be out in the Bullet on Sunday if the weather cooperates. Isn't it supposed to rain all weekend???

OldSchool 05-28-2005 10:31 AM

Re: Potomac River Mem Day Weekend
 
Weather looks good for Sunday. We'll be at Fairview around 12-1 and then down to Gilligans for the band. I guess that I better go and buy some new flares if the man is going to be out. :cool: :D :drink:

I was out on Friday morning and there was alot of debris from Pohick to Tim's 1. I've never seen the tide that high on the River in my life. It was up over the docks at the Pohick ramps!!
