2012 NBoP Armada.. on the Cheat Roll Call...

Post by Sir Adam »

Post up if you can make it, if you are joining us for the Friday Tour (IR, PS Composites at least before the Cquirt "comp."), or just for Saturday....

I'll be there, as will Kenneth
Keep the C!

Put me and an 8 year old bow partner down as probable for Saturday/Sunday.

If the weather is cold/wet, it might just be me.

If the weather is sunny/warm, and Smoke Hole has water, we might both bail in favor of a 2 day run down there.

Wow, that's a lot of conditionals. I guess I've turned into one of "those boaters" who can't be depended on to commit to any particular run more than 2 hours in advance. :oops:

It looks like the only day I can mold more boats in the next month is the 28th, so it looks like I'm going to miss the festivities (I might make an appearance Sunday). Mark Z will have Blackfly demo boats to try out.

I'll be there Friday & Sat - have to leave early Sun.

Joe if Gywn makes it maybe he can bring a Sith ( :wink: ) .. if not I'll try to jam my beater on the vehicle. You have to be gentle since she old, brittle and leaks.

Jermey hope you can make it! Will look to check out the boats that Mark will have! :-)

NBoP Armada falls into Esprit's training week, so I can't make it and therefore neither the Ceemweaver. But Anyone who wants to try it, come up to Esprit this summer and have a go in it at Smoothie!

TGG!

thanks PAC, not sure yet whether i'll make it so i'll check back with you later. i'd love to buy a new sith, but it's a bit, uh, cost prohibitive. :roll: that said, i'd prolly jump on a used or demo model, even drive a good ways to make it happen. hopefully i can join you folks at teeters!

If there are specific Blackfly boats you want to demo at the Armada, please message me or shoot me an email at mzakutan at gmail dot com. If there are a lot of folks who want to demo the same model, I just want to plan accordingly.

I'll be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday and looking forward to the c-fellowship.

I'll be there. Planning on heading up Thursday to visit with some family in the area.

Friday- I'd like to hit the lower Yough if anyone is interested. If not, I'd be up for the tour.

Saturday- Cheat/whatever with the group.

Sunday- Paddle something relatively quick in the area or on the way home.(headed south)



First time i've managed to make it to the Armada since 2003 or so. Looking forward to it! :D

I'm hoping to be there at least for the Friday squirt comp to take pictures and give out beer. I'll be booking to Albright as soon as I get off the UY

Saturday and Sunday, the boss man cometh

PAC will have the definitive "schedule", but here are the basics IIuC:

-Some folks headed to the UY
-Perhaps a LY Loop run at 9?
-Meet at IR at 10 am (Confluence PA...)
-PS Composites some time after that...
-Lunch
-Cquirt
Keep the C!
