another vote here for dart island. huge beach, will fit a ton of boats.
Yessir! We are always at dart. Great area. That's got my vote. Superboattwin250 is right, easy to get pizzas. I was thinking of everybody who wants to come put in $10 that can get them 2 slices of pizza and a soda, if that's something you guys thinks is a good idea.
I should have quoted who I was responding to... Dart is my first vote as well honestly. I'm gunna call rich tomorrow and iron some things out try to help him out a bit! I haven't been on dart in years is there enough water at both tides?Quote:

Somehow, we have to keep the Run going.
Well said. The long island guys are happy to go for a boat ride 'donate some money for the kids' and go home you can keep the pizza LOLQuote:

Look, I'm not trying to argue... I've boated the river for 25 years. Never once has that been a marked no wake zone. Let alone nobody stops for the apparent chart marked no wake zone, do what you people want. I was going to try and help get a venue and even get the pizzas out there no matter the hassle. But you people wanna be difficult. Sad to see the run die.Quote:

I believe the concern is just that no one wants the water police sitting around busting balls like they did at the ramp in Haddam last year, I wasted two hours warning people that they were sitting there. Hopefully you guys can get on the same page and make this happen. Its always fun watching the Long Island guys go by after crossing the sound.
No special permissons, as it isn't an event or gathering we just happen to see eachother hanging out at the same spot. Nothing formal.Quote:
