Who will be at their 1st ORC this year ?

It'll be my first orc! Looking forward to it! Bought my star wars pole for the side bet as well!

I'll be there for my first time as well as my first time in the big water. Been following for a while now and I'm ready to go. I figure this is an ideal opportunity with all the experienced folks and safety crews. Very much looking forward to this.

This will be my first ORC. Second time out of depoe bay. If the weather is nice I will be pre fishing on friday. I'm sure there will be lots prefishing. Hope to see ya all there!

I have been in all 7 so far, but on the fence right now for making this years. Here's some photos from number 1.

That looks an awful lot like PC. 

This will be my first.  After watching the posts on the NWKA website for 2 years, and not feeling ready, I am finally going to make it this year.  I was set to miss again this year because I had a family event to attend - but it was postponed - so I am registered! 

I've only been out of Depot once before, but I am looking forward to making the tournament this year!

It was. And we had a blast. Inundated the RV park and the county park with members and family, met and made friends with each other, the dory fleet, and the local businesses.

Dave, thanks for posting that series. I haven't seen it in a long long time. Was it your wife, or amb's who shot it?

This will be my first. My son (member here also) will be attending also and his first. I made reservations at the campground long ago.

WR, I think this is you at ORC1. Also, most of those shots were taken by my wife. We should be so lucky to have those conditions at ORC8!

WR, are you ever going to make it to another ORC?   

I haven't seen you since ORC2.

Dave,
Yep that's me. After my 2nd or 3rd Huli and a change in the angle of attack on the surf I finally got out drenched but out.. and that was my 1st official trip out onto the ocean. Your lady did some good shootin with the camera.to give us that montage.
Hope you really do have those conditions tournament day

Insayn,
Unknown as to when. Docs still haven't cleared me to do much more than walking, and very limited work. Still very heavy on serious meds. can't even enjoy a beer. Limited driving sucks. sometimes I feel like a 90 yro geezer.  So, kayaking isn't in the cards right now.

Have fun out there everone. Stay safe.

Well I'd go but without jammer and spot showing up,, winning it would be meaningless....hahaha. I jest. One day I'll make it....

You wish. sounds like Golden Dog, CBY, Insayn, bluewrx, and others will be stepping in to claim their shots at the title.

I'm no threat to prizes.  The best I've ever placed was something like 7th.  BlueWrx02 is your target if you plan to sabotage hit kayak with a load of banana's.   

And I think I read that Golden Dog may be tapping out as well. 

Wait.........

Is there another tournament that weekend that hasn't been publicly announced?   Where are all these regulars going if they are skipping out on ORC?

shhhhh.... trying to break Rudys habit of winning everything he gets into,,, including his own tournaments...
