Gathering of the So. Cal. Vikings at Two Harbors (Isthmus) on Catalina Island.
There has been a considerable amount of discussion about a Gathering of Ericson Owners under the post: "So. Cal. Sailors where are they". I have sort of taken the helm to try to organize a gathering at Two Harbors (Isthmus) on Catalina Island. I know that Don Anderson out of Channel Islands harbor and Martin King out of Long Beach both expressed interest. I sail out of San Pedro. I would love to hear from others interested and try to nail down a firm date.
Possible Dates:
Easter Weekend, March 25th - 27th
Earth Day Weekend, April 22nd - 24th
Memorial Day Weekend, May 28th - 30th
I basically just pulled these dates at random. In my limited experience sailing to Catalina (about a dozen times), the conditions can still be a little sketchy in the spring but the advantages of avoiding the overcrowding in the summer out weigh a few small craft warnings. But hey, who's to worry about a little rough weather, we sail Ericsons!
I would love to compile a list of committed parties. It would also be fun to establish a VHF channel to communicate on while making our various crossings.
Responses and suggestions welcome.
ARE YOU GAME?
Thank You
