I think the people in the area of the bar stopped them from entering the canel,they went nuts last few years! dam i would love to have that much hardware in my back yard, but they didnt appreciate it , and call the cops every year. Charlie and Joey are both great guys and always made me feel welcome, but some of those guys in thier million dollar water rockets are well a bit stuffy(rafting up at the bar"your NOT tying that to MY 400,000$ skater are you) but its a fun run, Tripps and ZUP you guys wanna try CT river?

Matittuck is about 35miles from the mouth of the CT river.
I think a great option for a 30' Superboat; for a 24' it can be a rough ride.
Plan on a 1 hour ride up the CT river to Haddam though. There are 4 no wake zones and two of them are quite long.
Anything I can help you LI fellows with, just ask...

Sounds like most are going to do the CT run, we're looking at the maps now, trying to figure a plan. I don't have a lot of time off for this cammando run from Texas to LI and back, but we definitely want to do a run on that Sat.

By Land or by Sea?
So who will get to Haddam Island first?
ZZ and his group of 30s (Jcap, Krank, and Zuperboat) or
Superbash and his crew of 21s and 24s?

I just figured out the total for the run,Leaving mattituck 25 miles across to the mouth of the river then about 20 miles up to the park ,then 30 miles to hartford.Then back on one tank of gas.NEVER HAPPEN.100 gallons doesnt go very far anymore.And 89 doesnt cut it.What time do they usualy make hartford and start heading back?

Hey ZZ,
Is that 25 knots? I think it's a bit more that 25 miles, but at 80 it does not matter much.
100 gallons not enough? Boy, I only burned about 60 to your house and back (200miles).
As for the need of 91+ octane, 3 or 4 gas docks with it in old saybrook and 1 in Chester. Portland / Middletown may also have it...
I don't know the timing of the event, but I don't think you'll be home by 6pm.
