Right. In 2004 Neal hosted the 2nd International SubSim Meeting in Galveston. It was an event that I think back to with fond memories and has grown to mythic proportions :)

..remember sounding the sub alarm by the dutch crew in the middle of the night..
..remember that on the Battleship Texas we got the GRAND tour by being inventive and a good story... (wont go into details what we said but we got a tour through sections that are normally never opened to the public...)...

... So I say we try to get the old gang together again and relive the moment and surpass the experience.

Who is game??
Dargo?
Drebbel?
Sharky?
Rebel?
And all the other people who were there.
I will put up the beginning of a wanted poster series;

Few months later and no replies :/

I believe it was 2008 ? in Copenhagen.

There was another in 2010 in the Boston are but I was unable to attend.

It would be fun to have another meet but all the old gang have gone their separate ways. That magic only lasted a few years. :hmmm:

I decided to send a pm to several people to jank their chains. Sofar I got a message from Sharky and she said that Drebbel also read it.
We shall see what we can arrange :)

That was 2009. 2008 was when we came to Houston.

No, I'm afraid not. Houston in 2008 was the only one I've ever been to.

Would either of you be interested in participating in a new meeting in the US in 2019?

If I'm a part of the word 'either' I'd really like to have a MEET in Germany seeing as there is someone over there I'd really be interested in 'bumping' into :03:

Neal,
Are you still active on the cavalla site?
What would the minimum amount of people that need to attend to throw a meet again at that site? (Maybe some people would also be interested in a road trip through the states with several stops (Cavalla being one).

Sharky did reply but dargo and drebbel are keeping radio silence.
