I'll be there; any one else going? L:ooking for other Armia owners to have a beer with at the Red Hook. It should be interesting with the morning minus tide.

Eric,

Yes, I have the boat.  Just slowly working out the kinks and getting it fitted to suit my needs.  Hopefully I will get some photos up.

I pulled the plug for this weekend as well.  Combination of crappy south wind forecast and half a dozen rando distractions that kept me from getting the boat/camper ready.

Looking ahead to next week!

Reports are that Charter boats cancelled on all three days, fish checkers only recorded 4 halibut.   Just the biggest of boat made it out those that did claimed the ocean looked like a flock of sheep. I pulled the plug rescheduling for this weekend. I will drive down Wednesday afternoon staying at the marina RV park. I'll gladly trade anybody's hot spot for a beer.   :whistle:
