Tuesday
There were sooooo
many boats trying to get into the main Tieup line, must have been 30 of
them right at 1:30-2:00pm. And those old folks in the Tieup line behind
us were complaining to the Sheriff - that we were blocking their
channel views :) !!! What
a crock.... 
Annual Newport Beach Harbor Boat Tie-up Party !!! Someone has invited you, so you already know where the Party is.... check with the Boat Captains below if you need a ride !!! NOTE: Only boats that are on the list will be able to tie-up.... please see point 2) below......
Captains,
Mates and those
who enjoy a fun day on the water meet Saturday, August 1 for our
annual Boat Tie-up party !!! This is the 12th year for this
bash and it's the best event of the Summer in Newport Harbor - ask
anyone who's been there. Live Band, dancing, 25 boats, lotsa
pretty mermaids, and fun for all !! There is an Aerial view below of a
prior year's gathering.... this year even better !!
We don't do any publicity on this party, keeping it on the down low....
Captains are in charge of their ship and guests !!!
Here's the inside scoop and sailing information for August 1, 2009: --------
Latest Flash Updates -------- The Duffy Shuttle
will run from the BBC as planned. Don't overwhelm this, it's
a 20 minute roundtrip ride so try to find Captains - the Lead
Boat will be Jim Shab's 46' Viking Peak
Time. We have room for about 6 2 more
Big boats
on the Main Line WOW
!! The OC
Register and Access
Hollywood
Boat Captains Only
please call me anytime.... -
Call the Boat Captains below to see if you can hitch a ride 1. This party will start at about 1pm and go until 6:00pm, unless we get busted up earlier. Some Captains will come earlier, some later. Check with your Captain to see what time you sail !! Also, this year we have the Live Band on one of one of the boats, Dancing Everywhere !!!
2. We have a tight list of
large (very large) boats that are part of this. This is not
the River...only the
boats on our list will be able to tie-up, otherwise the Harbor Patrol
will bust us up (too many boats) and no one has any fun. Boats without a
full crew of mermaids are not welcome. Please,
No Boat Crashers !!!! Everyone's
cooperation is appreciated. If you have a boat, anchor it
safely aways off and take your tender or dinghy over to the party, you
are welcome. 3. We have arranged a Duffy
Shuttle back and forth from the Balboa Bay Club from 1:00
until about
6:00pm. Late arrivals and early departures can use
this access. You can park at the BBC in Valet for $12 /day or
use self parking (make a left as you enter the BBC gate) for
free. The Duffy will be leaving from the Balboa Bay
Club Guest Dock. If you can get there by some other safe
means, come by.
MORE INFO..... a lot of people are going to try to use this Duffy Shuttle, but remember.... it's only a 10 passenger Duffy and it takes 20 minutes round trip, so it is bound to be crowded and full. A better idea.... call the guys below who have extra room and see if you can hook up with them if you will be there all day. Or hitch a ride and anchor away and dinghy over. The Duffy is mostly for people who need to leave early.... See list below, get a ride, call Captains below !!! 4.
There is a list below of the Captains whose
boats are not full as of now - girls only
please call the Captains below and make arrangements - we already have
plenty of guys. You gotta call the Captains below, I don't
know who is going on what boat or how many people can still come - the
Captains know that. I know that all of the boats will be
full, 500+ people, so call right now !!
5. It goes without saying,
but.... enjoy our time, drink sensibly and no drugs
!!! The Harbor Patrol will be watching our every move through
binoculars, and they don't need much of an excuse to bust us up,
so.....
be cool, have fun, do it right !!!!
