Another C-Brat Gathering In the History Books...

The rain held off, and the potluck was great: 4 big tables of entrees, salads, breads, desserts - an amazing spread of food!

I played guitar and sang while people gathered...





It was announced that this was the largest C-Brat gathering to date.  Lots of nice folks, boats and people from all over,


Barry and Patty put this on, and did a fine job of it...


Two gentlemen from the factory made an appearance, told us about their work, and answered questions.  Then, gave away a selection of hats, shirts, vests,  and C-Dory mats.  It's the first C-Brat gathering in a while that I've been to that had any factory presence... and it was appreciated.

Then, Sam Landsman, one of the youngest C-Brats, and now the managing editor of Waggoners and the Dreamspeaker Cruising Series, gave a short talk and gave away some of their cruising guides.

I did another couple songs and Barry performed some christenings for 4 boat owners.

It was chilly by the time we finished; Joan helped pack up the food stuff while I put away my music gear, and we had a nice visit with new friends, Kevin and Laura back at our boat.

Another C-Brat gathering wrapped up.

Looks like you C-Brats are like Seaward owners, nice people all the way round.

Hi Bud,
Well, with an owners group, you start out with something in common. Just like on the TSBB, we've made a lot of C-Brat friends that one might not have met if not for the gatherings. I thought you might mention BMW owners, too. ;-)
