Rich,

There is a Comfort Inn in Portsmouth that still had rooms as of a few days ago.

Thanks i found another one about a mile away.

There's the Marriot and the Omni in Norfolk by Waterside. The Marriot is really nice and would be my choice. The Taxi-tug runs till 1am. You call him on his cell and he will pick you up at the Renaissance and drop you off 1 block from either.

I think we just got to 110 boats.Got a friend coming down from SML in a 35' Fountain but we won't hold it against him.

Tidewater Yacht is slammed-a$$ full with 104 boats. Any others will have to raft up, find a nook somewhere that I haven't thought of, or head over to Waterside for the evening. I'm expecting a few 'breakages', so that should free up some room also. There's a 120' Yacht eating up a lock of dock space - maybe someone could untie him and push him out into the harbor?

Don't forget the Sheraton Waterside, and Ocean Marine on the other side of the Renaissance for spill over slips.

We got BEADS!!! Looking forward to seeing them!!!! I mean you all.........

well this really sucks, i put out my clutch and gears in 1 drive and thought that was all the damage BUT found out tonight that the main shaft from the lower to the upper has splines all twisted to hell. wont be getting the drive back till next week so i am really pissed to have to miss this run, was all ready to go and now there will be 1 less a/t. any chance of a rain check for next year since im already paid up.

have a great time all

ps james thanks for sending me the gears but now im getting all new stuff so let me know if you want me to send them back along with your shipping fees or ill keep them and just send you the check.

Dam that sucks.Sorry to hear you won't make it.Maybe next year.

Rick,

We have room on REMEDY for you if you still want to go. If so, PM me.
