I hope lots of boats will join us. Snow Island is an awesome spot.
I hope this is not counter to the spirit of things, but we just had our topsides painted... So, Fair Warning: Any boats that approach within 100 yards of Loda May are subject to be fired upon without warning.
We look forward to seeing you!

That boat must look beautiful with a new paint job!! What did you paint her with? I might have to come up by car to this Rendezvous just to check out your boat (and see the Abatos, great folks). Take me too long to sail up there.....but sometime maybe....

We also could spare a bunk for a night. We will be coming from up the coast at that point, but we could pick you up at Great Island Boat Yard.
The hull does look nice. Had it done, w/ AwlGrip, in the fall. Then as soon as she was trucked back here to the house, we put the cover on; so I have not yet really gotten used to how the paint job looks. But my first reaction was, wow, we really need to wax the cabin house! Have not seen the newly painted hull in the water yet.
Hope you can join us for the rendezvous.

That's a given, in Maine, any time of year. Kind of like saying "I think folks should be prepared for lobster pots".
Every year is different, but last June was wonderful weather. It's late enough hopefully everyone will be in the water by then.
Dean and us launch in 6 weeks.
....so if you're planning on attending the Northeast Fleet's first on-the-water gathering of the season, don't forget to register so we'll know you'll be there.
