So this throws open all sorts of issues, The mooring plan; should it be:
1. By length.
2. By manufacturer.
3. By country of manufacturer.
4. Star sign.
5. Seniority of manufacturer multiplied by the square root of the age of any yacht club any owner has ever been a member of or is currently a member of. Where two boats have the same final measurement the amount of teak is used to decide the final seniority, when the teak is thicker than 15mm. Where teak is not used as the final measure, the size of national flag of registration maybe use.
6. Italian old school method (first there drops anchor and rest join up, each boat must have at least 10 people on board all of whom must speak at the same time and all look like they are having the time of their lives!).
7. French old school method (First person arriving drops anchor and then invites other selected members to join them).
8. British old school method (first to arrive drops anchor and then spend the rest of the time telling others that they are too close, have the wrong anchor, flag, club burgee, boat, dog, school for their children).
1. By length.

3. By country of manufacturer.

I leave for SoF in less than a month, so is this meet-up going to be a 'thing'?

Our plans have now changed and won’t be down until after the last weekend of August. I guess the first weekend in September won’t be great, but we can make it.

30 July doesn't work here but no worries. I'm there for the original Lenny K dates and also have tickets for earth wind and fire on the 15or 16/7, plus of course there are massive Bastille day fireworks on 14/7 that make for a great anchor/dinner night. Deleted User, sorry to see you only briefly a week ago due to rushing with much boat preseason work. And ref your dates, there is a raft up Lerins or vf 25/26 Aug for a&k's daughter's birthday. Lots of c10-13yo kids. 4 boats already. Feel free to drop by. And anyone else.

Shall we say 12.00? Lerins between the islands? Alternatively I dont mind going to Agay if thats more convenient for you guys coming from the west. Happy to host lunch on our boat if we can all chip in with some food and booze.
