2024 Chesapeake Rinkervous

Dream_InnDream_Inn Member, Moderator Posts: 7,661 mod
July 12-14 will be the 18th Chesapeake Rinkervous.   Location still the same... just type 39.327710, -76.142037 into Google.  We back up to a sandy beach in fresh water.  The entire area is very sandy and the back of the boats at low tide is about 3-4 feet deep. 

The theme this year is Redneck.  Should be a bit interesting as I have seen/heard some interesting thoughts or plans already from some people.  I still need to figure out some decorations, but lots of ideas.

For anyone new to the forum and anywhere near or on the Chesapeake Bay, come on out and meet some new people that like to have a great time!  (just do a search for Rinkervous on the forum, many pictures of the last 18 years)

Can't wait for summer and to enjoy seeing everyone at Rinkervous!

    Though my boat has been there, it’s a long trip from Keyport NJ, so I won’t be there this year.

    It definitely is a bit of a ride.  Maybe we'll see you next year!

    Well, the day is almost here again.  Looks like maybe a little rain Friday but Saturday should be very nice.  We are planning to get up there some time Friday.  I know a few that are planning to be there tomorrow.  Can't wait to see everyone up there!

    A little rain? Last forecast I saw had TStorms all day Fri. We're still planning to come, but will play it by ear.

    If it means much, less rain is forecast for the upper part of the bay.  I believe it looks more like rain now than thunderstorms.  & only a high of 80 on Friday will make it better.  It will be great to see you guys up there!

    Just got the call from CinC house. She wants to stay home this weekend. Looked at Annapolis wx since it's about halfway. Thunderstorms all Fri and rain until Sat afternoon. 
    Now I have to figure out what to do with a gallon of apple pie moonshine!

    Sorry to hear, but I understand.  It is a long way from Solomons, especially if weather isn't great.  Even sadder to hear I can't be a part of helping with the moonshine! :D

    We will be heading over Saturday when the rain slows.

    Just an update, we got to Still pond last night and we had a total of 5 Rinkers tied up.  I know of several more coming today.  Winds are very light with mostly light rain.  Last night was absolutely beautiful!!  Can’t wait to see everyone else!

    Pix or it never happened.  Sorry to be missing it!

    Sorry we didn’t make it. Spent the better part of the weekend working on the vacuflush. Started out what was to be a simple duckbill replacement which snowballed into needing to replace the entire upper end. Gotta love boating. And I love how they aptly price everything $999

    Sounds familiar.  I had a pump out the Sunday before and I never have anyone handle it but me.  But I new the place and people, well, 2 minutes after I got there she asked, you didn't seem to have much in your waste tank?  Oh?  30 plus gallons pumped that quick.  I have two relief valves that didn't keep up.  My seal got sucked in on my vacuflush.  So Sunday afternoon right before Rinkervous I installed my full spare vacuflush.  Very lucky I had one ready to go.
