Mike - Im assuming you are posting this for a new customer in Southern CA ...eventually trip arrangements are best made by PM or EM to keep spam from proliferating.

But gathering up interest in Events and Venues is fine and fair Board use of course.

Wish I could join, but Nature is about to bring out her pastel of oil colours in the Northeast and I dont miss that for anything...

We'll gladly tag along for our fourth Two Harbors trip if it's set up for Oct 5,6,7. We have other weekend plans until then. Please keep us posted. Anyone else? Three weeks lead time.

I will be there the second weekend of October (13 - 15) to do a little diving. My boat is the T L Sea. If you decide to go that weekend, lets hook up.

Bobby,

I will be leaving from Oceanside.I will launch Friday afternoon and get a slip. My daughter won't get off work and down to Oceanside until late, so I will be leaving Saturday early. Come on down Friday and we'll share a bottle of wine.

THIRD DAY should be there 13-14th for the Cruisers Weekend on our way to San Diego. My top motoring speed is 7.3kts....a long was from the Mac's top end, so you guys could motor circles around me, but I might have the edge under sail~ :wink:

It would be nice to see you again Timmy Z!

Can't wait to see you. I bought a Ericson 27 last month. I was thinking about you when I got it home to start work on her. I plan on creating a spreadsheet to track cost much like you did. I bought her in Ventura and trailered her home.... very slowly. With a 9 foot beam she is right at the limit to trailer. Luckly she came with a custom built trailer. She is in good overall shape. I need to do three things to her before I launch her. 1. All exterior wood work needs to be sanded and varnished. 2. Engine needs to be pulled (going with a outboard). 3. New standing rigging. I stripped the wood and standing rigging first thing. There is a bunch of miscellaneous things that will add up but overall I got a great deal.
