I saw that there is a flotilla every year held on the Great Lakes, and we got excited looking forward to attending in 2026.
We have signed up at eventbrite any idea when it get posted and where it will be?

We are new owners and plan on spending some time on Lake Erie during the 2026 season. Would be interested in attending as well.

We are new to the Ranger Tugs family (R31-CB - 2013) and would enjoy participating next season as well.
 
I believe that I saw something posted in January last year. The Get together at Mackinaw was a great deal of fun and I learned a lot.
 
I understand that it would likely be in another place. Rotates around a bit.

Thats Fine, I think getting together with like minded people aboard like boats is exciting! Seeing what others like, is awesome, especially when it involves travel on the water to new destinations!
We made it a point to not travel more than 40-50 miles per day, motoring in our sailboat and than go out to dinner in a new town every night.
If there was something exciting in a town, we might stay for two days, we went up the river and up the eastern side of michigan, across lake Huron, to the Les Chenelle islands, (snow Islands) anchored out there for two days, By the town of Hessel where they make wooden boats, than onto st Ignace for a week, than back.
Obviously, we can make better time now. but some of our destinations were memorable!
Bottom line-I am up for a trip! And not just because its late November in Ohio! 😉
