I didn't notice any damage to their docks and haven't heard of any. Poets Cove was lucky enough to be located in about the least exposed position it could be. The marinas that did get hit with damage were virtually all exposed to wide open expanses. Some had nothing more than a floating log breakwater. I'm located at North Sanich Marina which is just otrside of Sidney. Nothing more serious than some boat covers blown off. I was very surprised some of the roller furlers that had what I thought would have been too much sail exposed didn't let go. I expected to see some shredded sails the morning after we got blasted by that storm.

Hi All

This year would be a great year to have attend the rendezvous, we are finally getting organized with our move to Comox and had planned to head to Victoria sailing this summer. I have attached a photo I discovered when I took my cover off yesterday. I won’t be sailing until July or so at best with this and other stuff to finish. So have fun, Bidwell was the beginning of it all for us, Thanks to Charlie and Judy, SV Eden.:egrin:

Cheers

I can't make it to the Friday evening pot luck on the float,which is probably a good thing since I'm not a very good cook! My daughter is graduating from UVic that afternoon. Will certainly be there the next morning. Looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing so many Ericsons in one place!

I'm a new member of the Ericson Yachts.Org. Do I need to register with the organization for the rendezvous? I managed to reserve dock space at Poets Cove marina today for June 19/20. So there appears to be space still available. I (and wife Joan) plan to arrive on Friday, anchor at the park and dock on Saturday.

Poet's Cove Ericson Rendezvous, June 19th & 20th.2010

After many missadventures, Rufus & John arrived at Poet's Cove under sail, from Porpoise Bay in Sechelt,& because the skipper had not checked their fuel level in Nanaimo & they ran out!! Having informed the Marina of the problem, extra people gathered at the intended docking point to catch the lines & docking was achieved under Jib alone. It was not pretty but neither was it a disaster! "Curlew" was then eased into her propper berth by hand. The pot-luck super was great & I am still trying to remember the names of all the new friends that I met there & during the next two days. One of the highlights for me was when I was hailed early on Saturday morning, by Vivian Morrow in "T.S.Farley" at the next berth, to ask if I would like a cup of Coffee, to which I replied yes & that I would swap her for a bowl of Porridge. So she brought the coffee over & we had breakfast together on "Curlew".
The Blindfolded Dinghy race was a hoot but I did not take part because I was getting help to bleed the fuel lines in my boat of air & get the engine running again. I was helped by James Deane & Alan Buttjes, of the Jueneau gathering, without whom I would not have been going again nearly as soon. There were some of our group who offered to help, but they were busy at the time.
I took several photos of our fleet & am getting Chas to fill in the names of owners & boats that I have missed.
Admiral Chas did a marvelous job of organising & the T Shirts were marvelous.
I am sure that there are others who can & will fill in the details that I have missed. John N.W.W., E29 "Curlew". http://www.ericsonyachts.org/infoexchange/images/smilies/grinning_ericson.gif
