The 2005 CDSOA Northeast Fleet rendezvous is tentatively scheduled to take place Tuesday thru Thursday, August 2-4 in Jamestown, RI with the boats scheduled to start arriving on Tuesday, shore excursions in Newport on Wednesday and the seminar and group dinner on Thursday. We've already booked both the Conanicut Marina and the The Bay Voyage Inn in Jamestown for these dates.
The way I see it, if it's a Tue-Thu deal, that gives many of the sailors amongst us Sat-Mon to sail to Jamestown and Fri-Sun to sail home. So that's an ideal 1-week vacation. Of course for some it will take longer but they can just tack on the needed days ahead of and after those days.
But I've been contemplating rescheduling the event to take place July 31-August 2 instead but will only do that if the majority feel that Sunday thru Tuesday would better suit their needs. And both the marina and the restaurant have to be able to accommodate us those days.
For the sailors it probably doesn't really matter that much because they'll take the required days off that they need for their vacation. But I'm also concerned about those that will opt to drive to Jamestown rather than sail and was wondering what their thoughts are on this matter.
If you plan on attending this year's rendezvous in Jamestown, RI, please respond to this poll. If you don't plan on attending, please don't respond to the poll.
