I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem Tom, just remember that for this weekend your coach is a 35' Wink especially when you're talking to Reserveamerica.

Tom, you're in, don't worry about a thing, except maybe what you want to drink and eat, and how much fun you can stand for an entire weekend.

Group, good evening, I am currently working in New Hampshire and Candy and I are living in the Barth. We went off the deep end and bought a sailboat and will be towing it behind the Barth to Florida for the winter. Our problem is where to keep it while we are at the GTG which is our first stop in Florida.If someone knows if there is room at the park or of another location please post a reply. Thank You, Morris

Depending on how long the Barth is and the trailer is, there should be room alongside for the boat if it won't fit into the space connected.

Morris,

You're welcome to park it on our property about 1 hour north of the campground. Where are you wintering in Fl? That might determine how convenient.

You're gonna love the Fl gathering, great time last year.

Corey, thanks for the offer, we have a reservation at Titusville for the remainder of December which is mostly east from the GTG. I think monday Candy will contact the Florida park people, It might be possible to book a non-electric site for the boat. For anyone interested Candy and I are the people from Iowa who bought Gunners 38 foot Monarch, and being from Iowa we don't have a clue, does anyone coming to the GTG know how to sail?

ARRRRR!!! Aye, Matey! Tom Johns and I do, and no doubt others. Best to take lessons, but a good primer will help teach you the terminology, which will give you a good start

I'm pretty sure they'll find a spot to park the boat for you. There's a big parking lot by the swimming pool that I've never seen close to full. How long is the boat?
Looks like Morris and Candy have the "long haul" award so far at 1334 miles. Anybody going to try and beat that?

Barth's production well represented in Fla.
Early Motor Coaches, Regals, Regencies (both early and later models), Euro, Breakaway, Soveriegn, and Monarch will be present. Want to see a history of Barth. Hillsborough State Park. Look what you started Danny.

I'm going to start this post here and edit it as the info comes in. Need to know who will have grilling space, microwave, oven space, etc., but ideally anything that needs to be prepped inside the coach should be in your own. Nothing is being chiseled in stone yet so feel free to throw out any ideas and we'll whittle it down as the date nears. Mary, bring yourself, and don't worry about anything else!
Saturday Night Dinner Menu;
Danny & Suzie- Bacon wrapped shrimp, rice salad
Jim & Patty- Seafood chowder
Rusty- French Onion Soup [TDF] Frizzled green Beans and maybe spud salad
