Another Bertram Rendezvous is in the history books. Some folks commented this year's Rendezvous was a 35B Rendezvous. Yes we had a number of 33B's and 35B's. JK brought his fresh 31B to the show. What a masterpiece. A big part of a rendezvous is to look and learn what others are doing to improve their Bertrams. We had many fine examples of engine jobs, fiberglass work, interior work. You name it we had it. Stay tuned for the photos on www.bertramrendezvous.com To all who took photos; please email them to Tom Ward at tom@distone.com
T-Shirts are available. Please email me at labquest.cb@comcast.net to place an order. They are $15 dollars each and don't forget to list the size and number. Please include your mailing address and something for postage when you send the money.

Charlie, Thanks for another great year!!!

The past 2 I wasn't able to bring my boat, but this year we made it, despite the tropical storm. What a difference it was staying on your boat at the docks.

Melinda & I had a great time visiting with everyone, both old and new friends. It was a pleasant surprise to see more B35's there, though I think I was the exclusive Gas boat over 30 ft. I was also happy to host some of the Chesapeake guys.

The return trip to Baltimore was pretty smooth on Sunday. The Del. Bay laid down nicely, though the outgoing tide did cost me abot 3kts off cruise speed, but hey it's only gas....

I've got a lot of pictures, I'll e-mail the best to Tom and the rest I'll burn to a CD and send.

It should only take till the end of the year to pay off the gas card;) I'm already looking forward to next year's trip.
