    OK people, we need to get things on the go. The ice is gone, some boats are running and now we need to SINK STUFF!!!!!! Next weekend is probably no good being Mother's Day and all, and the following weekend is the Vivtoria Day long weekend, so how about the weekend after that, the 23-24 weekend? I am not sure if Uniacke house is open or not so we may need to improvise. Let me know what everyone thinks, the more boats the better. Now things can happen before then as well. Just post if you are avaiable and see who can play. I for one can play Next Sunday, the wife is working. Leys get things going!!

    I will certainly come out to watch for a bit. it depends on the time. sadly work has taken another turn for the worse in terms of battling season. I now have to work every sunday. My start time for work is between 1 and 3. So if we battle I can get out for a battle. Maybe two depending on the start time.

    Now that the show season is over it is time to start battling. Uniake House opens on June 1 but the walking trails are open year round. I think we should be able to sail. As to the Grove the weekend of Victoria day is the weekend of the Bluenose marathon. In years past they have occupied the parking lot. I won't be able to battle until after I have completed the move on the 27th of May. Once the move has been completed I will ba able to sail and battle.

    What about moving from Sunday to Saturday. It maybe a better day. Just a thought. I noticed that this is posted both here and in the Treaty forums, which format will the battle be in?

    It can be in both, if there are enough captains for both. While one fleet is making repairs and reloading, the other can be battling.

    Jay let us know when a NABS\IRCWCC only battle is planned and the members here in NB will try and attend. Chris O and I were planning to come to Halifax for a weekend sometime in May for parts and to see everyone. I do not know what weekends he has off, when I find out more I will let everyone know.

    I am but Chris and I were planning to come down and buy the parts we need for the new ships we are building. That will be a different weekend than the one I am coming down for. It may even get put off till June, I have to talk to Chris O about what days are good with him. I will keep you posted. On the weekend of the 13th I will not have a boat with me as I am coming down by bus.

    I would love to send the Axis garbage barges to the bottom but alas all my stuff is packed into a storage locker. And i have no idea where the stuff is until I move into the new place. Should be about 2 weeks.

    We could use the grove maybe, and while we are there, look for Paul's boats :) :)
    Does anyone know of anything going on at the Grove this weekend?
