MOA Rendezvous, Deltaville

6/5 – 6/9 - We left Urbanna and made our way back down the Rappahannock to Deltaville. We stayed at Dozier’s Regatta Point Marina for 5 days while attending the Monk Owner’s Association Rendezvous. We’ve had the Monk now for 5 years, but have only attended one other MOA rendezvous and that was when we first bought the boat (but hadn’t taken possession yet) and we’d gone by car. It was great seeing old friends and making new ones. There were several educational sessions (we even gave one on cruising in the Bahamas), yummy breakfasts prepared by Sandra on Punches, a couple of outings at local restaurants and a catered BBQ dinner. We had a great time. A big thanks to all the organizers.

We were the first to arrive, followed shortly by Jim and Peg
Healy on Sanctuary.  They were docked across from us
Six Monks
Five Monk's all in a row (over 20 boats at the rendezvous)
We'd never seen so many Monks all in one place

Out to dinner -- there's always one in every crowd

Out for a walk one morning, we found a couple of "fixer-uppers"...
... and some dumb bunny
