Looks like we will have to wait another year for the next Napa River Run. Napa City Council OKs New Downtown Boat Dock December 11, 2012 After a six-year absence, downtown Napa is about to get its boat dock back. On Tuesday, December 2, City council unanimously allocated $1.5 million to construct a 176-foot-long, 10-feet-wide boat dock on the west bank beneath the Napa Riverfront development, just south of the Third Street bridge. Friends of the Napa River have worked with resource agencies, the Flood Control District, City staff and Council to rebuild the only access to the river in downtown Napa suitable for power and sail boats as well as kayaks and canoes. The link to the full newspaper article, with tentative dates of construction: http://napavalleyregister.com/news/local/council-oks-new-downtown-boat-dock/article_c52938fe-3f48-11e2-8039-0019bb2963f4.html Bob |

Good Morning everyone! and congratulations, Chuck! I haven't been visiting the "Trips and Rendezvous" section because its winter (or is it still?) I just checked our May calendar and the only weekend I'm not committed is May 11-12 and that Sunday is Mother's Day, not likely for a good turnout. I haven't seen a post on CW from Tony or Warren in a long time. I'd be open to considering another time of the year if that is what the group decides. JimL |

posted 02-21-2013 12:18 PM ET (US)
I was wondering about Tony and Warren, perhaps they are traveling. Maybe we can tap into facebook this year and see if we can get a bigger turnout (once details are decided upon). I regret not being able to attend some of the earlier Rendezvous, seemed like you had very impressive showings. |

Hi Gang! Congrats Chuck and Linda!! I would love to be in no matter where we go... I know some of us have been spoiled by the Bodega "House" being so close with the killer boat parking and all... whatever the deal... a "house" with some kind of boat accommodations is a good thing..(thinking) Maybe we need to take up a collection to help the poor cause of that America's Cup? Seriously though.. I agree it's time to brainstorm on the best plan, locations, etc. I will nudge Tony and Matt to visit this thread.... we might be able to summons "skiff" because he has a keen interest in the Cup.. Monterey and Santa Cruz deserve a good look... Monterey almost always having no wind in the mornings. Can we find a good rental "house" in SC, Moss, or Monterey? Napa or some SF Bay location could also be nice. Let's keep ideas flowing |

That Bodega Bay rental house is so great -- and inexpensive compared with hotels in other locations -- that I guess I'd vote for BB once again, especially because we're expecting another bumper salmon season and maybe we'd luck out with the weather. But several of us have been talking about another get-together later in the year during the America's Cup extravaganza; maybe basing ourselves in Petaluma, heading down the Pet River into the Bay and thus avoiding the insanity of launching in Sausalito or The City during that time. I think I'll only plan to spend one day on the water during the Cup, just to feel the excitement and be part of the fleet...probably won't even be able to get close enough to see much more of the contenders than their mastheads. So--regular rendezvous in Bodega Bay (or wherever consensus leads us), and a brief one during the Cup. |

I've been conspicuously absent from the last few NorCal events because I've been coaching my son's Little League baseball team, and we have games every Saturday through the end of May. If it were later in the year (early fall sounds good) I'd be back in it in a heartbeat. It's unreal how long that Napa project has taken, but I suppose it's a small miracle to get any sort of waterfront project done at all in California. Some day... And Congratulations to Chuck and Linda, great news for some of the nicest folks I know. |

I like Chuck's idea... maybe even August...meaning abalone, rockfish, Salmon, etc... full swing bringing the seafood feast to unprecedented proportions. Really anytime in the late summer/fall season would be great! Sean... I agree. Let's get together for an interim get together. I am in for sure. Only been out a couple of times and the salmon bite seems on the rise. I know my Strike 3 buddies will be in for some type of get together as well. I've still never met Jasper and his crew and after seeing these awesome vids year after year I need to be watching what these guys are doing right! You know how to get a hold of me...any of you..

To celebrate and toast Tony's passing, I'm planning on doing something at Bodega Bay. I emailed Porto bodega regarding the 3/2 rental we have used in the past. They have October 4-6 available. It costs approximately $700 for 2 nights. Last time we had one couple and 3 single guys splitting the cost. Other options include renting the other 1 or 2 bedroom unit, Camping at the Adjacent RV park or campground. Or for locals, just coming for the day. Chime in you can come or want space in the rental.

Early October is great for us. I did not enter into a discussion of dates as our schedule is still somewhat unclear. We should be in that area on the way home from AK. We are in an RV and will make arrangements for a place to park. We will not have a boat as the miles and ferry cost made that impractical. Hope to meet you all in October. Dave |

Edie has also rented the 2 bd unit next to ours in which to hold a get together with food and beverages. Edie is doing this for Tonys friends and family who are not boaters but everyone is welcome.

Here's the Tony part of Saturday's plan: The 65' New Sea Angler leave the dock at 6:00 with anyone wishing to ride on her. We should be ready in our boats by 5:30. Edie will have flowers and wreaths to hand out. Tonys family will then ride Strike3 and follow the New SeaAngler outside the harbor to scatter Tony's ashes and toss wreaths. We'll all have our radio's on the same channel, probably 8, so that Edie can say a few words. After we return, we'll go to a house Edie rented for food refreshments. Feel free to bring any drinks or munchies. As far as boating, I'll be there Fri-Sun. Weather permitting, I'd like to take at least one trip up the coast. |

I'm sorry to report that Nancy and I will not be able to attend the rendezvous. We had an electrical fire in the truck camper coming home from AK. We fled back to AZ, and are working on cleaning personal effects and disposing of the badly damaged camper. We are fine. The camper was not a huge investment. We were lucky to get off so easily. It occurs to me that many larger Whalers have most of the same systems that produced the fire. I will write to that topic under the electrical heading when I collect my thoughts.

If Edie is on the big boat, I will likely take that option rather than dealing with pulling my boat out after dark. Is there a tentative plan for Saturday morning (weather permitting, of course)?

What's the best route to Porto Bodega from 101 when pulling a boat trailer? It looks like there are a couple of ways to go, I'm looking for the least white knuckle route. |

Easiest way is off 101 at East Washington. |

Andy, I think the least stressful is getting on 280 in SJ. Stay on it into SF when it will become 19 th Ave. Stay on it through SF to 101. Even though you have the lights, there are no lane changes and you have slower speeds. Some folks will drive 880 through Berkeley and cross over the San Rafael Bridge. Faster and no lights, but I don't like driving that Oakland,Berkeley, Richmond corridor. There is a Bodega exit in Petaluma. I think it's Washington. It will take you to the Coast. |

I'll second East Washington. Go under 101 and follow your nose. It will turn into Bodega Ave. Just keep going. Chuck |
