Psychoboater...Did you ask what number you were on the list? I'm 21st out of 32 and I called Feb 15th? I have a feeling the girl didn't put me on the list in feb and it wasn't until I called back in march that I got on.

I called a week before you, dont know what number on the list I am didnt think to ask. If for some reason I get lucky and get a spot and there is room along side of me Ill be more than happy to raft someone up. Itll cost a beer

Hotel info:

• For anyone driving into the area Friday night there are several good hotels near the interstates. At the intersection of I295 and Route 10 is an Amerisuites (804) 530-4600. At the intersection of I95 and Route 10 is a Homewood Suites (804) 751-0010 and a Marriott Courtyard (804) 414-1010, both of which offer good trailer parking.

I don't know of any 'good' hotels in Hopewell. They're there, but I wouldn't stay in one.

I'll be sending out a 2-page 'instruction' sheet in about a month that has ramp directions, etc, so just be patient. As for Jordan Point, they have a lot of slips with no power or water so they have a hard time renting them out. Last year we got everyone in and still had slips left open. I say if you want to have your boat in the water Friday night, go ahead and launch and we'll find a spot for you. This is a big deal for them, so they do the best they can to help us out.

Heading east, the closest place is on the Chickohominy (sp) River. I'm guessing that would be 25-30 miles from JP. Rocksteady can probably provide details. If you want to go to Busch Gardens try Kingsmill (about 35 miles from JP), but the slips there are $100/ngt, irregardless of boat size.

I don't think Kingsmills ramp can handle anything bigger than 20'. There are 3 marinas on the Chickahominy.
1. Colonial Harbor it has gas,ramp and restaraunt
2. Rockahock Campground it has ramp and restaraunt. no gas.
3. Rivers Rest it has gas,ramp,restaraunt and a motel.
I've got a full dock and house at my place on friday night but any body that wants to stay at one of the 3 places on the Chick can follow my group up Saturday morning at 8:30. Rocksteady puts in at Colonial Harbor usually i'm sure he would be glad to lead anybody downriver to meet up with us.
