Okay guys, I sat down and studied the map, distances, water etc... it looks likes like a decent ride (10 miles or so) to get to where most of you will start at Benards to go to the drivers meeting.
Plus that Friday I will check the route out.
I will have all this locked in hard on the GPS but I am wondering what time you Bernards guys plan on leaving Saturday a.m. for the drivers meeting, I would like to run with you guys there.
Refresh my memory, what time is the driver meeting?
Looks like allot of fun according to the map.
Lets Rock.

Bryan, I think the drivers meeting is at 10:30a. But Im not positive. Id like to head to Parrots Cove/Bridgeater Plaza at around 8:30-9:00a. I like to get in early to get good dock space.
Only takes about 15minutes to get there from Bernard's. Im sure we'll meet up sometime Friday to finalize some plans. maybe at Will's house.
I am definatly ready to rock! Although the boat is'nt. BUT, it will be!!

Eric, thanks dude, time estimate from Mariners to Bernards, for me?
I know, way to early to be planning but I like to study new areas, this is obviously my 1st time at SML, just checking everything out.

Bryan, maybe an additional 10 minutes or so. Im looking at the map now. You should just stop by Bernard's on your way.
Looking at the map.....just past marker R-11 and Rabbit Island is the cove where my(and I think Steve's) boats will be docked. We may be on different docks but you should be able to see both of them when you pull into the cove.
I'll be out there waving and yelling at ya!

Bryan,
Were 25 miles north of Columbus. We boat on the Muskingum and Ohio rivers.
The couple riding with us are from Circleville, close to Chillicothe.
He broke one of his enignes last October and won't have enough time on the new one to be that far away. It's easier to handle around strange docks with 4 people in boat anyway.

Too, cool.... Graduated in 82 and spent many a nights 30 miles from home in Circleville....
I plan to take the Donzi to Ohio in July, we must hook up and you can show me where to go, most lakes are to small.

Bryan,
Our home river is pretty small, we put in and go 3 miles up the river to sandbar and go back to dock when it gets dark. The Ohio River south Of Marietta is really nice. We get down there a few 3 or 4 times a year. Third weekend in July is the Cincinnati Poker Run. Great run that is 130 to 140 miles.
