Chris -
Glad you finally have that Saber running. As a former Erie-ite, I am interested. I was planning on dragging the Outer Limits up for the weekend of the 25th but I could leave it in Erie, run back out the following weekend, and then drag it back after the second weekend. I might be able to get a couple of the Mentor gang to come along if you have something put together. Been too long since I was at beach 11. I will sleep on the boat but agree that the Sheraton is nice. Please let me know once you have something put together.
Best,
David

Anyone can keep they boats at my shop. Huge parking lot nothing is ever messed with. Just got off chrises saber and we talked about the event. First Saturday in September is good. We can all meet at my shop if you wish. There's enough paved parking lot for 30+ boats it's huge. Then we can all go make our arrangements for transit slips for the evening and dunk the boats in the water. Chris and I will be addressing the crazy parrot restaurant in north east this week and making sure they can accommodate a group of our size and in a timely manner. We will launch mid morning or so and cruise around some in the bay and take a trip out to north east for lunch. After lunch we will head back to erie for a day at beach eleven. Maybe a trip to rum runners in the bay for dinner depending on group size. If to large we can dock at our transit slips and goto the cove which is attached to the Sheraton. Then maybe rip around the bay a bit if anyone's up for it and then hang out at the dock or go up town. My very good friend owns a limousine manufacturing facility and two limo service companies. So if we wanna get a party bus and births town that will be arranged. Just let me know. I would like to get a list of those interested and would need slips for the evening and I will workin getting those spots held. Please let me know if you need any other information. If anyone would like to reach me cell is 814-449-4378. Call or text. Thanks for the interest guys
