With the change from Saturday to Friday I have lost part of my crew and this has opened up a couple or more seats on Team PREDATOR that I am glad to make available to club members. if your not an FMO member you can join to qualify. The price of admission for a ride is you need to do is buy an FMO Tee shirt or two and wear it with pride. Let me know by e mailing me at: bobthebuilder(at)vzw.blackberry.net and I will get back to you later today. You will need to be at the Cape Coral Yacht Club boat ramp at 10 AM Friday. I am travelling so will be out of touch for some of the day.

Bits and pieces
Well, it's going to take more than a blizzard and white out conditions to keep me from a flight back to Paradise. Happy to be back on the Island and looking forward to Friday's run. Three people have taken me up on my offer of a ride and along with some of the usual suspects the boat is pretty well full again. Friend and FMO corporate sponsor Raymond Roberts from DoubleR Performance will be aboard Team PREDATOR as well.
THE MENU AND PRICING.
I have had to prepay our lunch for the group with my credit card. I will set up a desk at Useppa in the dinning room and you may reimburse me me for lunch. The cost is $23.00 per person which amount includes taxes and gratuity.
We are having their "Island Grill Out". It includes Charcoal grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, grilled chicken, buns, cheese spread, lettuce, tomato, onions and condiments, chips and baked beans. A side of cookies and iced tea, lemonade, coffee or soft drinks.
As well we will be selling club tee shirts and hats again and have our 50/50 draw. There will be membership forms available for those either renewing or joining the club for the first time. If anyone would like to volunteer to help with some of this just let me know.
Thanks for supporting your club.
