We are here!!
Finally, some boating weather! I hope you are all getting out there and using your boats, I know I am! As I write this “corner”, I am sitting on the back of “The Other Woman” in Clinton, CT on our way back from a GREAT Essex Island rendezvous. I think all the captains who made the BUMPY trip enjoyed each other’s company! Next one is Mattituck at the end of July! It is another great venue and I hope those who signed up can make this one. It is always a fun time with trips to wineries, Greenport, the “Broken Down Valise”, corn hole! And then there are always mudslides in the pool! Hope to see you there.
Now to Club business. The new website is launched!!! I am so proud of the people who helped but major kudos to Captains Randy Blosio and Renato Tullio! They worked tirelessly to get it done before the 125th Celebration weekend. And wow, what a weekend! The clam bake was the BEST one we ever had! Amazing work by all the captains who helped. With Jamie and Diane running it, there is nothing negative that can be said about anything that night! Truly an amazing event and major kudos to them as co-chairs! I can’t wait until next year!!!
As the Club gets busier and busier, let’s all work to keep it nice...If you see something, say something, or do something. We all need to take ownership of the best Club on the northeast so we can ensure the best for all of our captains and their visitors. “Clean up clean up everyone everywhere, clean up clean everyone must do their share,” to quote one of my favorite purple dinosaurs! It is really up to us all.
We have a lot going on so check the calendar and face book posts regularly. Lots of bands, cookouts, cornhole, fun and games, flash rendezvous’, get involved and have some fun! Spend those minimums!!! That it for now, keeping it short so I can enjoy the view of Clinton Harbor. I do see RC Remson enjoying his new ride over on C dock at the Clinton Town Marina, which is great! So much fun to travel and work with! A major asset to my team!
Looking forward to seeing you all on the fireworks night! We will be headed out the following day for another weekend on the boat. We only really have 8 of them, so we plan on being out as much as we can. We are really in love with our new ride. She is an elegant beast!
Safe travels to all on the water this year. USE THOSE BOATS!!!
Your friend and Commodore, Clyde “Chip” Mount
