Its that time of the year again to start setting up for the next derby. I want to continue this as long as I possibly can. But in order to do this I need the max number of participants to make it worth it. Cast your vote for the best choice.
-
I have no preference.
But whichever day is selected, can we all tell Sailfish it's the other day, so that the rest of us have a chance?
-
(C) no preference; I'm attending either way

Good either day.

I will attend either day, or both, I cant decide now :smt044

Capitola Art and Wine Festival is on the 14th and I usually help set up Amadeo Bachar's booth with him.

Didn't know that. Ok I will change my vote to the 7th

It's been a while for me since I have attended this event. If it works out, I would like to make it this year.

Sounds like we will be picking the 7th as the Derby date. Do any of you have any ideas on how to get more people to bring food to make it a big potluck?

Make it a requirement to enter the tournament and show proof on arrival. Also push back the food/raffle time to 2 pm… 12 is too early

What about instead of a potluck having some sort of food truck or something show up? Potluck is great but a lot of people are trying to maximize their time on the water, then clean and load gear, etc etc. By the time all that is done prepping food is maybe not high on people’s priority list.

Food truck is a great idea

I had a hard time changing, putting kayak and gear away, etc. and hitting the potluck and raffle last time. An extra 1/2 hour between weigh-in and potluck/raffle would be good.
Food truck could be a good option, but dealing with cash, etc. could be a pain. Maybe the entry fee could be bumped $10 and include a food ticket to the food truck.
I'm sure it would add too much difficulty, but carving up a winning halibut and making fish tacos would really be epic. Maybe have a backup in a cooler in case none were caught. I'll bet Todd and/or Sonny could make that happen. It would be an amazing consolation prize for those of us who hali-skunk.

Will anything be in season then? /s

I will gladly donate the Halibut if caught on that day. I am sure Todd will do this too.

7th sounds good, food trucks would be cool (though may not be enough business to attract them), for the Pot Luck, maybe just ask people to sign up to bring something? with categories, like Chips/Dip, protein, desert, etc. with each being enough for a certain number of people. and if folks wanted to go in on something together they could, or maybe some folks could just pitch in a some cash for others who bring a lot.
my *impression* is that the closer the tournament is to where people live, the more potluck shows up, when it's further, then less potluck, but that is just my impression.
Thanks for doing this Adam,
Brian.

Voted for the 7th. I know some foodtruck peoples that might be interested.

👆👆👆👆!!!this!!! I came back on shore 5 minutes before the time limit and after hosing down my gear awards had already started. The line to hose down gear was kind of long. I agree with the 30 minute break between weight in and the potluck! I had a great time regardless. Can’t wait for the next one.

I will try to attend this event this year. Good with the 7th
