Wondering if anyone else is going to the boat show. Maybe we could get a group of C25/C250 folks together for lunch or dinner during the show.

I hope to be there on Friday. You know, of course, the restaurants will be mobbed.

Scoot across the bay to the Robert Morris Inn in Oxford--the best crabcakes in the world, period.

I haven't been to the RMI for many years -- back then it was overrated and overpriced (despite being bought champagne one night by Bill Veeck). I know of other places with better crabcakes (Angelina's has the best in Baltimore -- they ship them all over the world). But much closer just across the Bay is Harris' Crab House at Kent Narrows. Basic, on the water, and awesome.

In Annapolis I would especially recommend Cafe Normandie and Middleton Tavern. The seafood place upstairs on the corner -- Buddy's? -- is pretty good. But those are the places that will be packed.

Year before last we were looking to do the Chesapeake and mentioned it on site and were given some great advice. Brooke steered us away from our intended spot( Ocean City) I think was where we were headed and Dave recommended the RMI and their crab cakes. Both guys were right on. And now comes the boat show and Brooke came up with a bunch of places to dine in and if things go well here we might just try a few. Thanks

ok who lives in the annapolis area that is going to organize this gathering?
i think it would be great to gather and meet other 25 owners and be able to put a face with a name.
we have all learned alot from each other.
now, let's come out of the closet.
the organizer should pick a place to meet, maybe after the show on friday and set a time.
let the door people know or we can make a table sign for catalina 25 and we can respond by email.
if you show fine if not fine to.

lets get together. it's going to be a long winter.

Dave,
I think meeting at the Catalina display at a cetain time is a great idea. I don't care what we do...just wanted to meet some others from the board. I plan to go Friday as well. Anyone else able to make it Friday? We could grab a cold beer and shoot the breeze for a while.

I was wrong. I can't be there Friday. Maybe Monday if I can move another appointment. You guys hoist a few for me (especially since I don't drink beer)!

I plan to be there on Friday too. I second the motion for meeting at the Catalina display. We can grab a beer without leaving the show.

<b>How about 3:00?</b> That leaves time for folks who want to have dinner later to get a head count and make plans/reservations.

I'm planning to be there on Saturday. (Yes, I know it will be a mob scene, but that's when my crew can go.) Happy to meet up with any others foolish enough try Saturday:)

Been there, too... I'll vote for Robert Morris--not on price, but on yumminess, by a substantial margin. (But it's been 4-5 years now.)

Bruce,

It could be worse. At least Navy is not playing this week & the weather is supposed to be great.

To all: Unless you already have a secret & guaranteed place to park, don't forget about the shuttle buses to get downtown. You could waste the whole day looking for a space.

Those with a DOD sticker (military) can park on the Naval Acadamy grounds.

Dang,

Completely forgot about that! (and I'm AD USPHS) Now all I have to do is get on the compound & find a space. Thanks for the reminder!

While it costs $20, parking in the school playground just across the bridge in Eastport is close, easy in and out, and the money goes to a good cause! And you get to stop at the Tiffanys of marine supply stores...Fawcetts!
