    The link doesn't work, and what exactly is the plan? I'd like to come but I don't know anything about it.

    Rocky-

    Most people arrive Friday afternoon and launch at Treasure Cove. A group will likely go out to dinner and/or check out all the cars down in the village. There will be about 1000 amazing show cars all over the place - mostly 50s -60s American muscle. Saturday will be informal hanging around, boat rides, lake tours and a killer BBQ starting early afternoon also at Treasure Cove.
    Sunday- more of the same, most people on trailers by early afternoon.Count on 15 or 20 boats turning up, more if the weather is nice.

    Basically a Donzi party from noon on at Treasure Cove. It's very informal. Bring something to share, beverage of your choice, etc. Share rides in different boats, etc.

    How to get involved?

    So I have not been to one of these events since they were on Speaker Heck Island.

    Do I have to stay at Treasure Cove? I will be up at the lake this weekend but I already have other accommodation plans.

    Also I don't have My St. Tropez ready, It is still in parts. Can I come via my other boat or car?

    Is there any sort of schedule or plan. Should I bring something for bbq? If I am allowed to come who or how do I kick in $ for the bbq etc.

    Thanks for any info.

    David

    No need to be staying at Treasure Cove. Stop in by boat or car. Stay a few minutes or all day. Catch a ride in another boat. It's like a pot luck picnic. Bring something to share or toss on the grill, beverage of choice, bathing suit, etc. I'd like to catch a ride in your 17.

    Back from the picnic. Great weather all three days. Calm conditions Friday and Sunday, blowing real hard with big waves on Saturday-ask Don N how rough it was!!

    My highlights:
    -I put about 5 hours on my boat
    -I got to drive Mike O's boat for about an hour (thanks Mike!)
    - I got to drive one of the new Hornet 17s. The boat was solid, responsive and plenty fast with just the V6-Thanks David!
    -Saw Ken's amazing 1972 Cig 19/20 NĂºmero UNO
    -Full moon and fireworks
    -About 1500 classic cars at the Adirondack Nationals
    -Pearson's ribs

    4 pretty nice Aronow boats below:

    Hi Jay,

    I just replied to an old message you sent. Didn't realize you were the same guy at the picnic in LG.

    What a nice weekend......rough as hell though.

    Cheers!

    No worries Kenny. Always good to connect a name and a face.

    Your boat looked and sounded great!

    Here's another picture for the masses
