Sorry It took me so long to get back to ya, my PC took a nose dive and I've been without internet for a long time. As far as Cuttyhunk goes, I wont be able to swing it

. I will be going to Scottsdale Arizona for my sisters wedding that week, and that kinda takes priority. Once again sorry I could'nt get a yes or no to ya's sooner. Have a safe and fishy trip everyone!

just to remind everyone going. parking will be available free of charge(well maybe a plug) at my shop. gates are locked when shop is closed up. it would be a good location for goose to run his shuttle from(there goes another plug)seeing how GB recomends we all be at the Alert by 8 am. i'd say lets try to be shutteling by 7 it's about a 15 minute ride. the gate will be open at 6 am. Shaumut Diner just up the street opens at 5 and serves up a good breakfast plate cheap. directions are as follows.
from providence
195 east to 140 north(exit 12b i think), take exit 3 (hathaway road) at the end of the ramp turn left. proceed to the first set of lights and turn left(the diner will be at the lights on your right) the shop is appx. 1/3 of a mile on the right. just look for the AMI sign or some kind of a hint(s-b cutty sign).
from points north. there are 2 ways you can run. 495 south to 195 west to 140 north. or rte 24 south to rte 140 south. it doesn't matter which direction you are coming from at the bottom of the hathaway road exit(exit 3) you still turn left. proceed to the first set of lights and turn left. appx. 1/3 of a mile on the right look for the AMI sign.
i'll be there early and if anyone has any questions. post them or pm me.

Thanks Red for taking care of the parking for us this is one item I was not sure of

Goose are you still good on the shuttle? And many thanks to Goose also for this BIG help

The weather gods look to be happy with us this Sat. and Sun. both look great!I have not heard back from Nightfighter on the coffee so I will pick up some powderd creamer sugar and instant. I picked up a new grill last night that is going over on the Alert today. It is one of those Thermos go anywhere ones that you can cook burgers,dogs, bacon, eggs or what ever. How about bacon and eggs Sunday morn? Can someone get say 2 dz eggs to bring over with them? And someone else bring some bacon? If not we maybe able to get some at the store on the island but they will cost big $$$.

Also they do not charge for fishing rods but any bag under 40lbs is $1.00. So they will most likely charge you for waiters as a bag and tackel box or bag.

Slipknot · 06-11-2002, 08:04 AM

Greg, I can get some bacon too, if someone else can bring the eggs.

I have a backpack and will try to bungee cord all my gear to it.

I have a large cooler also , so if we can combine all our refridgerated stuff to one, that may help as opposed to a bunch of small coolers. I'll bring it along and see at the shuttle place.

GBOUTDOORS · 06-11-2002, 10:15 AM

Sounds good Slip yes please bring the bacon and I see Chris is on the eggs so thats all set. The big cooler is also good and will only cost $1.00 to take over.

GB

I can do coffee, sugar and creamer (cups too). Any brewing gadgets in the house?

GBOUTDOORS · 06-11-2002, 10:32 AM

ok the coffee is yours and cups I'm sure we have something to brew in.

Goose · 06-11-2002, 07:26 PM

Thumb's up on the shuttle ! Saturday and Sunday Thanks to my kind and lovin wife.

GBOUTDOORS · 06-11-2002, 08:14 PM

Ok it looks like we are all set I am going over with my boat on fri. and will be at the house Sat. at 10:00 or maybe meet you all at the boat. Goose knows the way to the house if I am not at the boat. We will have burgers on the grill for lunch and then maybe we can all go over to the Cuttyhunk club and check it out??? Then check out the island a little before starting the derby. Its up to you guys how we do this as it is your time on the island

they also have a small history of the island display at the town hall if anyone is interested

Again many thanks to Goose and Redcrbbr for the parking and the shuttle

chris L · 06-12-2002, 07:23 AM

I guess it's time to go. Although with the passing of 10x10 I find it difficult to get up for this trip.

Atleast I'll make some offering to the sea in Kens' memory

RIP 10x10
