As it turns out we not sure we can make it. Been struggling with shaft alignment after replacing the tranny. We are .010 off and can’t seem to get it down from there. More to come.

Wander the docks with a cocktail, see old friends and meet some new. Saturday, July 20 8a Free tour of the USS Constitution ("Old Ironsides") for the Bertram group arranged by Maureen Lyons of the 33' FBC "Our Bertie", who deserves a 21 gun salute for setting this up. Visitors 18+ must pass thru a security inspection and show a federal or state photo ID 3-6p One of our sponsors, Liferaft Services, will be on hand to display safety gear and will be demonstrating a life raft CO2 inflation at 5p. They'll have a small selection of safety items on display for purchase and cooler of amber refreshments- grab one and talk safety. Liferaft Services will also have the raffle tickets; be sure you grab one from them! 4p Group photo & Drone shoot (the drone flight will FAA willing... we're pretty close to Logan airport) 5:30 Raffle! Gather and hope your number is called. Swag sponsored by Bertram, Garmin, SeaKeeper, & Liferaft Services. 6p-? Potluck Dinner, Dockside. If each boat contributes a dish of some sort there should be plenty to go around! Sunday, July 21 Departure by 11a

Good luck with your Boat, Tony. Maybe we'll see you when we head South this Summer.

With family visiting from out west we may load them up and come in for the day Saturday. We'll see. It's a short ride from Scituate.

Sorry we missed it but with the temps as they were and with a suspect AC we chose to take the Utahian's whale watching instead. Maybe next year!

I see most of you guys meet up in MA. Does anyone do anything of the like on the Great Lakes? (new to this forum)

Hi Matt, Welcome aboard. There have been a few great lakers that have come and gone over the years. I don't recall anyone ever trying to put together a rendezvous though. First time for everything though!
