As long as you bring a boat to stay on...Hammond doesn't have a hotel.

Check the OPA standings, quite a few actually.

Not bad for 1986 boats.

Was going to baby my boat next season to make the motors last 1 more year. Decided today to yank them and rebuild them this winter.

With some fresh motors, I won't be last to the onion rings!

I just had dinner at Schaumburg airport with my helicopter buddy who flew the safety choppers for the Mich City races in the past and after letting him in on the run story he said he would help coordinate the aerial coverage. By the way, if its 5-8's I think I'll just fly with him, lol!

But yes, this sounds like a good time. I highly recommend hammond marina. Plenty of slips there. Yacht club, casino, good launch ramp. Plus, several sweet old Cigs, Fountains, Formulas and Apache boats call it home.
Them T dock guys still rowdy we were over on M dock when we had slips in Hammond.
FoxHunter still reside? and that big Formula with the car alarm that went off every night !!!

Who remembers the band or singer on the Clipper Ship
that was some good clam chowder!! ( this will date myself )
