I have never been to this marina and will be launching by myself this afternoon.  Is it a pretty nice launch, or anything I should be prepared for? 

Which dock are we mooring at?
 
I should be there NLT 2 pm (I HOPE)

Thanks,
Brian

it's the best launch that I have seen.  look at the link I posted to the everett marina. it shows where guest dock "a" is in relation to the launch.
It is what you meant it to be...

Tough to say. There's 70something boats going in the water by early tomorrow morning, plus all the other folks not involved in this event going in too. My guess is yes, it will be crowded. It's a big launch with a bunch of lanes so hopefully it won't be too bad.

something to remember about the everett launch.  they actually encourage using the pullout docks early in the morning to help expedite launching boats.

Yea.. I hope not but I will have the alarm set for 2 miles. Sirius will warn me and tell which direction it is moving. So if you hear a crack and see a white TJ pick up and run like h*ll...  :yike:
