sounds great, i'd like to see some pics, it's like your old boat in size, but your new boat in speed....it'll take you on the river, but not on the big water...

The CPBA will be meeting for "lunch" at the Bruce and Johnson's Brewers Yard in Branford (aka the Dockside Restaurant) at 1:00 for an introductory social. The tide is low at about 3:00 and Branford's ramp is tricky then. We figure we'd meet around 10:30, take a cruise around the Thimbles, then meet up for lunch. After lunch, a quick burst to New Haven would be the second run of the day. By the time we get back to the ramp the tide will be favorable. Then we'd trailer back to the marina/bar for some stories, etc. Everyone out of the water by 5:00, with plenty of time to enjoy the evening. Bob P. has a 31' Larson there and is willing to host the BYOB crowd that evening. Remember, you don't need a boat to meet up. Come early or come late. Lunch or dinner, Christian will be there all day and night to accept applications from new members. Look for the Sutphen and the Larson on "F" dock. Remember all new members get a free CPBA decal or classic CPBA T-shirt.

i cant make it unfortunately. i will be working on the boat tomorrow.

How did it go on Saturday. Did any new members sign up? Any pictures? How many boats showed up?

It was very overcast and not many showed up!
