Get together in Mn.

[jemckay]

I agree we should have some kind of meeting time and place. I will be down Saturday around noon.

Hey aal of you comming to the Mn. gathering, I think the place to meet would be the public access on ottertail lake. The access is on hwy 78 just south of the city of ottertail. We should plan on meeting there at noon, depending on wind direction we may want to actually launch somewhere else,but this is a good access. Checkmate of Fargo is bringing at least 3 boats (sounds like a couple of '05 mates). I visited with him last night and he is pretty pumped about this and is looking forward to it also. Any way we will meet at ottettail landing 12:00 sat. aug. 21, stay on ottertail for a couple hours, probobly hit the zorbas, the head to west battle for a while. Any body needing more info. can e-mail me at jsg4202@aol.com and I will give you a couple of phone numbers to reach me at. Looking forward to the weekend.

Pulse:

How long does it take you to get to the Twin Cities?

Jim: From my house in Moorhead (right on the dakota, mn. border) it takes about 3 1/2 hrs to get to the cities. For a good route go to mapquest.com and search for Battle Lake. I have some friends that live 2 doors east of me at the lake that drive up every weekend from New Richmond, wi. and they say it takes about 3 hrs. I hope everything is still a go. If you want, you can reach me during the day at 701-371-2211. The weekend sounds like its going to be good.

Regards,

Jim

whats the outlook on the weather up there this weekend. i heard not the best. best of luck anyway.

 

[jgreen]

The local forecasters are saying, partly cloudy, highs in the 70's light winds. That would be tollerable.

Come on up, it should be ok

 

[jgreen]

Sounds like it will be a chilly

night for august but sat. seems to be shaping up.

How did they weekend go? I'm up in Winnipeg but I might join you next year. I've got two Mates - 16.5' Diplomat and a 21' Starliner. I have a cabin on Lake of the Woods. Best boating on the planet. Lots of Minnesotans come to fish and explore this paradise.

I actually looked at your boat before you sold it to fnshrmaster, you were about to sell it to me then I found the pulse 185 that I really wanted. If you are looking for another mate there is now a dealer in Fargo, call Dave at 277-9612 he would be happy to sell you one in stock or find what you are looking for. We will have another get together next summer, maybe two times. I will post when and where next summer.
