[Sloop Scoop 2006] #8, October 1 -- 7

[Sloop John B]

It's almost that time . . .

For those free for last minute plans, we'll be sailing tomorrow (Sunday, 
October 1) at noon.  I hope to get out either Tuesday or Wednesday 
afternoon, and we have a tentative mast dropping date a little 
early--Thursday or Friday.  Next weekend sounds warm, at least, and I'd 
rather do some sailing, but we may need to use that good weather to get up 
the river so we don't get stuck having to get out by the 15th and doing the 
river trip in 5 foot waves and 40 degrees.  We'll see.

I'll try to give a clearer end of week plan later in the week.  I just 
wanted people to know about tomorrow now.

General information (what to do and bring) and directions to the harbor 
(long-winded but interesting and accurate) can be found on the Sloop Scoop 
site at

Hope to see you on the water this season!
