northeast of the ruins.........but with the new regs you stand a much better chance of keepers off the point and along the south (ocean) side. still pretty close to greenport.

iam taking advantage of this offer and coming in on that wed.
also i asked jeff at the marina to scan in a copy of the map that shows all the docking space and where we will be located and e mail it to me ,ill try and put it up for all to see when i get it. this turning out to be a big event, and running very smoothly thanks to all thous envolved, brewster , walter , ed, tom , john.
ill also be sending out letters to are sponcers in the next few weeks, if anyone has a connection let me know, or secure it your self, the more raffle prizes the better. i already have commtitments , when some more come in i will start a new thead that will list them all, lets keep the momentom up

we have 18 boats as of now, that are showing interest, that would mean that dock c is filled up and we are working on dock b, however i spoke to jeff today at the marina and he said he only has 5 reservations so far.i know its early but it would be nice to confirm the slips in case we need more.

Posted: Jan 26th, '10, 20:04

If one stops at the Chowder Pot Pub which is between North Ferry and the Marina it can take considerably longer than three minutes - sometimes that walk is measured in hours.

glad i sugested greeport this year little did i know 1st week in august is the big feast by greenport.charlie there will be thousands of people on the streets ,a business consortium purchase the old greenport fire house and turn it into a micro brewery. there grand opening is that week .the beer taste very similar to boston beer (not that any of us drink)ha,ha, but it makes us blend in!!!.they are bringing the pirate ship from the movie into the harbor that first week in august. those of you who have never put up the sails and work in the riggings this is a fantastic advanture.ship will sail every morning (i could see captain patrick with eyepatch at the helm-agh)and the tourist will set sails heading to the atlantic .ship will then be open for inspection from afternoon on.this is a don`t miss week even if you cannot bring your boat be there!!!

great info bob, but you being docked next brewster, i dont think youll need the micro brew, you will have the hi test

Posted: Apr 9th, '10, 09:59
by bob lico
brewster turn over a new leaf he will behave. i was told a keg would be available but i have no experiance other then seeing the setup at our volunteer fireman activity. i know after putting the keg in that barrel with ice you have to let it set for some time before you tap the keg .i am willing to help friday if somebody knows what there doing . i imagine the tent will be set up earlier in the week and we can have the keg available friday night.what do think charle?? greenport will make this the first year of "octoberfest".

i dont remember, call the marina and ask for jeff, or maybe tom hart or ed boyd will chime in. there is a small lot behind the office

Posted: Apr 25th, '10, 09:19

How big is the land yacht? Should be no problem for cars, pick-ups, vans, etc., but a large motor home will require some planning.

As Charlie mentioned, the land yacht is a custom van.
Here it is at the Newport Rendezvous several years ago, with Capt. Pat riding shotgun....
