Two nights is all I can get out of the girls:drink:

Usually 4 to 10 boats The more the better. I bring my dingy They have the boat launch that comes around also.

The entertainment on the Island is over the top
From Yellow Kittens to Ballards it is a event not to be missed.

Steve ya gotta go!

Boat Bro.

Last year I had 9 Girls dancing on the Bow of the 46.
Took a freaking week to buff out the footprints:eek:

Have you ever been to Spring break in Daytona years ago?
Its kinda like that on the Island.

Who can pass up the spring break thing.

d24sf49 06-17-2009 08:50 PM

block is always a great time. salt pond or ballards.

KNOT-RIGHT 06-17-2009 08:50 PM

Theres also Public showers and private bathrooms
at the Beach. It is approx a 5 minute walk to it.

Last year we rented mopeds and formed our own gang
and explored the whole island.


Just hope for good weather.

Let me know you can follow us up.

If you leave at a different time I will give you my cell phone number and my GPS cordinates to bring you right to us.
I can even meet you guys in the channel in new harbour with the Dingy and bring you in. Piece of cake!

I can get there no problem.

I was wondering about showers and such.

We have Friday off as I'm sure most do, so it's play the weather by ear I guess. It's gotta break to summer sooner or later, right?

Would love to run out there with you.

Can you keep her at 1/4 throttle.......:party-smiley-004:

SHORTFUSE 06-18-2009 01:28 PM

What would be the best place to book a room? of course with weather permitting I'll launch the boat in Jamesport & head to Claudio's to meet up with a feww other guys, & then off to Block Island. Slboatdrinks...your boat is beautiful. I've drueled over it, don't worry not on it, while it was at the factory. I've only been to Block Island once, so any added info would be great. If you guys were interested in stopping off at Claudio's & picking me up, that would be great.

I heard the National hotel was nice.

Sick Stinger 06-18-2009 02:41 PM

yeh while you guys are there having fun I will be sitting home in my boat with my kid spraying a hose in my face, so it feels like a rough one to block with a stuff here and there:boat::hitfan::boat::daz:, but hope to be in the water by aug 4th:lolhit: well time to read all the posts haaha

Sick Stinger 06-24-2009 04:58 PM

Im ready for some water, and rain doesnt count.

SHORTFUSE 06-25-2009 02:03 PM

Steve, I brought th boat up Memeorial Day. I got a crackhead price of $500 plus gas & tolls...couldn't pass it up. I only got tu use it once so far. This weather is horrible!!! As we get closer to the 4th, I'll know better how many boats are going to leave Claudio's & what time. Where are we all going to hook up @ BI if we dont meet earlier. I don't want to wind up at the wrong place.

I'll stay tuned.

I got a slip for fri/sat at mitchell marina next to claudios for the 4th weekend. i didnt realize everyone was doing Block. Depending on guest arranagements, we'd consider running with ya'll to block for at least the day to hit claudios for sat nite and maybe join ya sunday again.

SLboatdrinks-I saw you guys this past sat, we kinda ran near eachother out of CT river over to Pavillion. I didnt get a chance to introduce myself but im sure we'll see ya out there again. Boat looked good by the way.....

Where were you?

We ran straight from Newport to Block and then came back in pea soup later in the afternoon.

beamog 06-30-2009 10:28 AM

Hmm, maybe it wasnt you then. We went out of CT river, and there was an active thunder than ran near us over to Pavillion in CT (soundview).

I need to get a hold of him. He seldom seems to be on the board.

Can you tell him to PM me please.

Thanks,
Steve

JBOUTLAW 06-30-2009 02:50 PM

Mike-what are you guys doing with the boats in Block? Are you using the public moorings or anchor field? Was thinking possibly of running over. Jason
