About this event

Land cruisers are welcome at every port.  In particular, we would love to see you at Brownsville. There is ample parking at the marina and they have three RV hook ups on site.  Two more hook ups are nearby at the Eagles Nest Campground. 

Sep 15--Kingston (360-297-3545).
  Make your own reservation and notify the marina that you are with the PTYC.  This is an optional first stop for slow boats and party animals.  Happy hour starts at 4 PM on the dock--BYOB and light appies.  Here, we are playing the first ever PTYC Old School Date Night Raffle.  Ladies, draw for your dates and restaurant.  Gents, offer your arm, open doors, pull out chairs and pick up the tab. 

Sep 16 and 17--Bremerton (360-373-1035).  In this port, we have reserved 12 slips on the guest dock.  Confirm your attendance with the marina any time prior to arrival.  Note that you are with the PTYC. They will give you your slip assignment and the gate/restroom codes.  The first 12 boats to contact the marina will get these slips.  Pay El Duano $5 for the registration fee.  There should be additional space available elsewhere in the marina for late arrivals, if necessary.  Plan to arrive near slack water on Sep 16 (1:15 PM).  Current flows in this marina.

Day one: Happy hour starts at 4 PM on the dock--BYOB and light appies.  Dinner at Anthony's Restaurant or on your own.  Sign up online or inform a cruise captain if you wish to participate in the group dinner.  We will make the necessary reservations.

Day two: walk the Bridge-to-Bridge urban trail, tour the Puget Sound Naval Museum, hop a ferry to Port Orchard, enjoy the boardwalk and the Harborside Fountain Park.  We will arrange a special guided tour of the USS Turner Joy for 2 PM if there is interest (sign up or inform a cruise captain if you would like to attend).  No happy hour on this day.  Instead, find some friends and scatter for dinner in town.

Sep 18--Brownsville (360-692-5498).  We now have 12 slips reserved.  Contact Duane Madinger for your assignment (specify side to).  The last blow out mega cruise party of the year starts at 4 PM in the dock pavilion.  The pavilion is heated and covered for your comfort.  We will begin with a varietal wine tasting.  Bring a bottle of your favorite Syrah or Chardonnay and we'll vote for the best in each category.  Not a wino?  BYOB and be happy.  Appies provided.  Bring your own meat to grill and a side or desert.  Master knife sharpener Craig Muma will perform for your entertainment.  Bring a favorite kitchen knife and the sensei will put a ginsu edge on it!  Bonfire in the park after dinner.  How could you not have fun?

19 and 20--Shilshole (206-787-3006).  Make your own reservation and notify the marina that you are with the PTYC.

Day one:  Happy hour starts at 4 PM on the dock--BYOB and light appies.  Dinner at Ray's Boat House or on your own.  Sign up online or inform a cruise captain if you wish to participate in the group dinner.

Day two: Golden Gardens Beach Park, Ballard Locks, the National Nordic Museum, trendy shops, tony restaurants, and 12 breweries nearby.  There will be a pub crawl, of course--time TBN.  The marina runs a courtesy shuttle to downtown Ballard.  No happy hour on this day.  Form a group and dine downtown.
