He, he. Your bad.

I would have like to have gone, but I am broke again.

Lets see last time I was down for 17 days, I put about 3.5 hours on the boat, and now I am broke again. This is getting really old, really fast.

Does anyone know the route? I may put my bow rider in the water, park somewhere, and take some pictures.

Bobthebuilder

Hey, Frank sorry to hear your having more problems. On the route , I had a flyer and could be wrong on this but memory says home base is Salty Sam's in FMB. There is a card stop at Gasparilla Marina so I expect they would run on the outside to Boca Grande, in the pass and up the Intracoastal. From there to Burnt Store for lunch. After lunch I think they will likely run down the Intracoastal to Ft Myers Beach but not sure about that. I would think you would have a good chance at getting some good running shots as they head across Charlotte Harbor for Burnt Store. If I hear more definite info I will be glad to share.
I will be on the east coast hopefully heading for Nassau weather provided and then down to Turks and Caicos so will miss this one.

Bob,
My goal is to be in your situation in 10 years. (The wife better start making more money)

Bobthebuilder

Tom. Nice to have a goal but don't relying on anyone else ! He, he.

I worked hard for a lot of years to be able to do what I'm doing now. I even once considered myself to be a workaholic but managed to get over that, thank goodness. I will start a thread in GD possibly tomorrow that will take everyone along on our trip. If it works out the ultimate destination is 1200 miles to the BVI where I will leave the boat for the month of May, do a poker run with them on Memorial Day and head back to FL. So we will see how it goes. Weather of coarse will be a big factor.

Keep well.

Bob
