Pilot- Table Captain

On a cold winter's evening...

[nota bene: this entry was written by Blue Stache and posted by Upwind]

After a couple week’s recuperation from the start of a New Year, the call came out from Brother Boats that it was indeed time for the brothers and sooks of the Chesapeake Bay Table to gather in celebration of our fraternity.

On Sunday, January 20, 2008, the first Tip-A-Few of the new year convened at the Flagship restaurant on the waterfront of Portsmouth’s Scotts Creek – it was another tremendous turnout. Limey & Holly were not able to attend – as they were continuing their exploration of the southern climes, AJ was missing in action, Piper was off protecting the citizenry from fire (but Maria represented him well), and Brise-Galets was traveling in France. Brother Cruz flew in from Ft. Lauderdale – leaving Ann & Jack to mind ORZA until his return – to join the festivities.

The company was superb as our little group of 19 initiated a new server (she did a great job) with plentiful orders of both food and drink. It is always a special time when sharing the company of our brothers and celebrating the uniqueness of the Brotherhood of the Coast.



February will find time for the Table to reconvene – many at the Keys Table President’s Day Zaf (with at least three on their own bottoms) and the rest of us somewhere locally. And as always, getting together to share in our good fortunes as Brothers will be highly anticipated.

I wish I were able to be with you all. However, being able to share some of the fun with you through the blog is the next best thing. Thank you brother Upwind.
