I had a lot of fun yesterday. Thanks for taking pics of my boat. We did have a good time running up he river with you as well. Now I just need my driver Joe to get a little more seat time in the boat. He was a little rusty but did a good job for getting thrown in there at the last minute........
I am sure Joe or ExShipdude will chime in here eventually..

Re: Conn. River run
Good Morning Gary,
We did have a great time!
About 10 boats launched in Old Saybrook including (3) 30' Supers, (2) Panteras, a Hawk Marine, a Sutphin, and...
Titan and is Activator buddy met us at the ramp after crossing the Sound.
We had a rather auspicious start to our venture north, with a couple of fellows getting tossed from there 22' Activator after jumping a cruiser wake. There were quickly rescued by the group and we'll leave it at that for now.
Unfortunately, I had to bring my camera guy back to the dock shortly after we had started. Something about a 40 footer had sunk at Essex Island Marina...
T-Mone hung back for me and we caught back up to the group in Haddam. It pays to know what buoys you can cut...
The Scream & Fly guys had begun to launch and we ran north to the beach in Portland for the gathering.
There were lots of photos taken for sure. Thanks Dan for getting yours posted...
I'll post a blow by blow of the second half a little later.

Pat Tripps And Myself Had A Great Time .im Sure Cappie Did Also. Sound Like We Made The Rite Choice To Drive Around Since We Both Brought Kids. We Made The Tripp In 2.45 With The Stop For Food. Dammmm Cappies Boat Runs Nice. Turned Way Down Still Going Over 85 And The Attitude Was Increadable.
