Below is Neals original tentative itinerary for comparison. It has some details that the other one doesn't and I need to jibe the two. Remember nothing besides the start end dates has been fixed yet so it's all still subject to change/debate/modification. Here's your chance to give input and i'd appreciate hearing your ideas/concerns/suggestions.

For one thing I think a Boston start/end would be a lot easier and cheaper for those who are flying in but if we're going to get a tour of Sonalysts and a Navy presentation!!!!!!!!one!!11!! that's probably going to have to happen on a weekday as opposed to the weekend day. On the other hand the Constitution and Battleship cove will be open every day of the meet (except monday for the Connie). There is a couple other things that would need to be adjusted too which i'll get into later if they still need to be.

Anyways here it is:
