Hi again, Okay, I've posted pictures of everyone who has told me they are coming. If I've missed anyone, my apologies and please tell me again. I've been run...
Jamie, I checked the 2006 Sucia page and could not find the tide and current tables. Is there a new link ? Terry Jamie Orr <jas_orr@...> wrote: Hi again,...

I've rowed my Chebacco, thanks, and I vote we keep this a SAILING race! Besides, we'll have to beat the tide somewhere, and I don't think I could row against ...
