Nick Amelio, Ft Myers will attend in his 43 Nor Tech cat.

The weather remains pretty much as advertised. The winds have let up and the Gulf is settling down nicely. It will be a bit cool in the morning but will warm up as the day goes on. No problem at all for us northerners ! LOL

I think rather than run 2 groups we will all leave together and go up the ICW. Terry Sobo can lead the way and I will float around so that Jay can capture as many boat pics as possible. Be sure to come along side so Jay can get your picture.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in the morning.

Sorry for the late reply but we would love to run down with you. We will be comming from Alligator Creek and be idling around 930 looking for you. We only plan on running 65-70mph on the way down to save fuel. If you want to run faster we can get a head start and just see you in the intercoastal somewhere.

Kevin,

I may have problems getting off the lift tomorrow, between the tide and the direction of the wind, it is it like today, no water in the river.

If things go well probally closer to 9:45.

I had a great ride on the Gulf this afternoon from Cape Coral to Marco Island. Seas were following and under 2 ft south to Bonita then maybe 3's at the most to Marco. Had a jacket on and the sun in my face all made for a comfortable relaxing ride. Tomorrow should be even better. See everyone at the bridge in the morning.

This sounds like it is going to be a good time. I hope to join you next time around, Hopefully I will have my new boat. I am looking forward to becoming part of the Ft. Myers offshore team. Have a great day tomorrow.

Thought I should make FMO members aware that we now have tee shirts and hats baring the new FMO logo. I will bring along a good selection in all sizes tomorrow.

Men's tees in black, white or yellow haze, sizes small thru to XXL. Women's tees in black or white in S, M & L. Also hats in black or white. All items are priced at $22.00 each. Any profit generated from our clothing sales goes toward our scholarship funding.

Our new website will be online hopefully by mid next week and items may be ordered using PayPal right from the website. These items will make excellent Christmas gifts I am sure.

Bob,
Sorry for last minute.
However looks like I will be able to make run tomorrow.
Should be 3 in boat.

No problem Rodney. Just meet us at the bridge for 11 AM start. Since we are ordering off the menu and they are not preparing a buffet, an acurate count is not as critical. Glad you can make it.
