The Delta Bay Club was almost full to capacity. We had a great spot and even decorated the coach.

  

Our first stop on the Waverunners was to Mandeville Cut to watch the crowds arrive

  

Here are a few shots of the place. It was almost full.

  

And the party was just getting started. We had 4 days till show time.

  

The Coast Guard making a stop at the bead barge. This had to be the largest raft up I have seen.

  

One of my favorite boats. Me and Mr. Luke

  

Karen and I at Potato Slough

  

Jim and his crew on Silas Clyde. Yes another Nordic Tug 42. Hey look a topless girl....

  

The new Spindrift store/restaurant/bar was a hit at Happy Hour, and the prices were almost the same as the Yacht Club..

Then I saw this. Could it be???
After all these years I run into Bill's old girl friend. She hadn't changed much and still had the spirit.

 

 

I don't think we could have gotten any closer to the show

  

After dinner we were ready for the show

I didn't realize that all the new bridge pieces for the Bay Bridge came down from Stockton

  

This is an strange site. A cargo ship in the Delta. It just doesn't look right.

     

Of course no trip would be complete without a trip to Walnut Grove and some great Mexican food.

Then as quick as it started it was all over. Only a few boats remained. Oh well till next year...
