Re: Depoe Bay Wodden Boat Fetival
I'm hoping to take 3 small rowing boats.
None are new or very pretty, so I gonna put them all in
the water for people to use. Really can't hurt them and they were
all made to be used. I think boats should be in the watter and
used.
After all the Coast Guard is just a hundred yards away, so I think
everybody should be safe. May get to see "Your Tax Money in Action"
Might be somebody's first time in a row boat. Should be fun to
watch them learn, and might get them turned on enough to build one
themselves.
Maybe could have a "Newbie" rowing race around two CG Boats.
Or an Under 8' rowing race. That would be a lot of fun.
Lots of thrashing about and slow enough that even a short course
would be long enough to watch for some time.
Let's see 1.4 x the square root of the waterline. Allmost 4 knots
if you thrash hard enough.
Too many boats sitting on trailers or in slips that never get used.

Pat,
Thanks...I've been in touch by email and Jack sent me all the info including
the boat display material. What the heck, I'll display the Pointy Skiff.
If I can get the current one done, it will be set up for sailing, that might
make for a more interesting boat.

Boat displays will again be located on the harbor seawall parking lot
and at
selected harbor moorages. To locate the parking lot and registration
table,
turn east at the only Highway 101 stoplight in Depoe Bay. Proceed

the

find a
spot to park your boat and trailer. The registration table will be
open at
8 am. If you plan to display your boat in the harbor, you can proceed
directly to the boat launch area. The turn off to the launching ramp
is
south of the bridge on Highway 101 at the Texaco Whistlestop gas
station.
Turn east at the Texaco station and follow signs that direct you to
the boat
launch area.
