how many from the nordic fleet showing up ? my first time and ive heard many stories....some good, some bad....anyways always good to meet new people (especially NORDIC owners...) keep an eye out and be safe !!!! any ideas on where to stay that are good $100 or less per night ?

Made it last year. The weather was off, but otherwise great time. So much eye candy!
Not going to make it this year.
Got my girlfriend a ring, so now I guess it's a wedding instead.

i'm sure you'd much rather plan a wedding anyway

time for seeing eye dog.......congrats !!!!

Wanted to do wedding @ DS. I'm stil hoping she'll let me show up in shorts & flippy floppies!
No need for seeing eye dog, just darker sunglasses

The "bad" stories are truly few and far between, I suppose like the media we have in this country, the sensational always gets heard. No fears, the events are always a good time - you won't regret coming. Most of the hotels in town are good, depends if you want to be on the water or not. Try the travel lodge and Best western. Or call Nordic, ask for Kevin and he could find you a place.

We've always rented homes. If you have a large group, this is the way to go.

thanks 90/lhc ......just the wife and I.....booked into quality inn....looking forward to a good time (despite the horror stories ).....i'll try and post picks, ( sunglasses needed !!) .....stay tuned & safe summer boatin' to all ! p.s. wondering if i will need front and back anchors (sideline at run, sandbar etc..)

Rydda1, I look forward to seeing you and your wife at DS 2011! You will not regret coming. Bring fenders and find a group to hook up with down by Black Meadow area if you want to watch on Friday. Same for Sat for the shootout but you will be near Thompson bay. Quality Inn is a good loc too.

thanks Lhc....white/orange 25' ...cant miss me ...lookin forward to it too !!
