I think the biggest help would be to stagger the launch times at Rocks Pond since that is a relatively small ramp facility.

After everyone has launched, ideally I would like to stay together as a group and only if we are forced to break into temporary smaller groups do so. However, I'm be good with whatever.

Cindy and I will probably be at the ramp close to 10 am but the rest of my crew is coming from Jacksonville, NC with plans to leave early enough Sat morning to be at the ramp by 10:30. My boat will be in the water waiting on their arrival.
We will keep it the way it is for now then and play it by year that morning. I figured the launch times would be naturally split up by everyone just arriving at different times. I do have a similar plan as you I should be there a little before 10am

welcome aboard @Ramblin Wreck. I spoke to @andy07sx230ho and he may carry them to help split things up but no matter what they got a seat on my boat if they can't get on his.

So after much wrangling about dog sitting, we are finally firm... looking forward to seeing everyone.

@bronze_10. Are you and I the only ones from Raleigh area going? I am leaving Saturday morning if you want to caravan down the road.

Look forward to seeing everyone as well.

I suspect the Winston Salem guys will be driving through Charlotte/Columbia though so we won't see them.

@bronze_10 I am on the road having a cocktail now so I will drop you a note as we get closers.

On another note, trying to meet up with @tim h for lunch friday while I am in florida.... a little pre-trip planning!!!!
