For the second year, we spent some time on the Chesapeake Bay Rendezvous (5 days this year) with a group of 9 visiting boats from the New Jersey Performance Powerboat Club. 7 of these boats were returns from 2008; 2 were new. I can honestly say that it was a pleasure to run with a group that had no compunction to challenge each other, no braggers, and that were happy to work together and watch over each other under all circumstances. Whether it was coordinating a car service for the 2 boats that broke down on the first and last days, modifying the schedule to adapt to weather conditions, helping out at the docks, sharing the bar tabs or helping with luggage, there was nothing but smiles and "Can do" attitude the entire time. THIS is what community and group boating is all about. Thank you, DaveP, the NJPPC Planning Committee, and the members who attended. 300 miles of fun - I'll be smiling for weeks...
