    We arrive at 10:00 and battle when people are ready
    (usually around 11:00)
    I set-up my boat the night before (it confirms that I have everything in the boat / B-pump, Regulator etc.)
    Just not BB's / CO2 tank / batteries
    Hope that helps

    P.S. Remember to bring $5 for use of the pond

    Had a good time even though the tree tried to hurt me and the kids. Not sure it liked us there. Also, got some very good ideas and even more questions. Have to get a boat ready for next time even if it is just a cargo. Gotta start somewhere. Why are there no cargos?

    My thought is that cargo ships have limited use in this club. :bang::bang:
    We seem to use them ONE hour a year - at NATS (in 2016) :(:(:(

    I see. How do you score? Sinks, hits, convoy runs, etc?

    At NATS we follow Campaign Rules.(IRCWCC web-site)
    they are different than fleet combat rules
    At Saranac, we would put out 2 convoy boats, one per fleet. The first convoy boat that sinks that protecting fleet losses. :crying::crying:
    Kids are GREAT for operating convoy boats :rolleyes::rolleyes:
