So thinking about joining this but proably going to boat from Myrtle Beach up to Beaufort. Is there a descent ramp in Beaufort I can drop my truck and trailer off at the night before so I only have to boat one way up to Beaufort. Do you guys expect to be in that shackleford area for a while at a beach as I would probably just catch up with you guys ther ebut I don't expect I would get there till somewhere in the 12-2 range.

Due to the glow party in new bern there r no hotel rooms.. What does the group think about putting in at Beaufort and spending the night there. @Eric Ballard has done this and has the hotel name with dockage boat launch and a safe place to park.

Nah.. I think Beaufort and still going to shakleford or cape lookout and hang out for the day... Adams creek is nice but the neuse river is just a river. . I think the beach would be more fun.

I have to work a football game that friday night so if we can narrow down a place we would prob stay sat night and take the boat out Sunday and come home.. Not sure if we would go down late friday night or early sat... I may call that hotel tomorrow and see if they have any rooms. @robert843 u gonna stay the night in Beaufort?

U bringing the boat and not the ski?
I sold all my skis last year so right now I'm planning on the boat. I did how ever make an offer to buy a ski this morning so it that could change.

I'm down for hanging out around Shakleford Banks and/or making the trip to the lighthouse.

Soo.. I think we r out for this trip. Several unexpected expenses have come up that have taken our normal boating budget and chewed it up like a fresh doughnut!

There isn't much talk about this trip anyway with it being 4 weeks away.

I agree. After the curve ball with the other event going on in new bern and lack of hotels it kind of sunk this ship (no pun intended). I say we cancel it all around and try and reschedule another time.
