Time flies when you're having fun! The OkoumeFest is fast approaching. I just started billing and that shuts down in just one month on April 15.
If you want to do either the OkoumeFest Ultra Marathon or the NEW Challenge, get signed up right away. I also suggest that you arrive a couple of days early so you can take part in the traditional OkoumeFest activities that start on the 16th. I'm looking forward to a test paddle of the Shearwater and the Great Auk. I hope to also get out on the PocketShip.
You may want to get camping reservations for the event through CLC using this link: http://www.clcboats.com/boatbuilding_classes/323.html?jm=1 Scroll down a bit and hit the red RSVP button.
Here are links to the two WaterTribe events:

OkoumeFest Challenge, 210 Miles: http://www.watertribe.com/Events/OkoumeFestChallenge/Default.aspx
Note that we are still working out some details for the longer Challenge, but the course is pictured. There will be a checkpoint at or near the bottom of the loop.
