Another fun filled weekend was had by the Carver Cruisers on July 14 – 16. Six boats, EBB-N-Ive II, Wabbitt, Rumours, Only Time, September, and C & C cruised to Longbranch Marina, on the Longbranch Peninsula.  Bob Stevens came by car on Friday, and Bill and Margaret Schlemmer arrived by car on Saturday with their new dinghy.   The weather was great and the views of Mt. Rainier were magnificent.

Filucy Bay is a fun place to explore by dinghy so a lot of time was spent in the small boats as many of the pictures will show.

The weather was so beautiful Sunday, that no one wanted to leave. In fact, so nice that September and Rumours decided to stay over again. Only Time and C & C however did have to finally leave late in the afternoon.
