But as the thread grew i started getting PM's from friends of mine and others that own other brands asking if they can join.....i can't say NO..So this is going to be a PR for everyone that wants to join..It will be held the weekend of Jan 20th from Miami to Holiday isle...As of right now we would all meet up at Haulover Marina ( not 100 % yet ) in the morning of Jan 20 and run down to Gilberts for lunch and then off to the world famous Tikki bar......There will be a purse and awards as well......
..i was thinking of doing this just to put some pocket change in your pockets so that people don't just drive all the way over here ( TX, MO, NJ and so on) and not take home any prize ( besides taking home good memories and good laughs )....I'm not doing this to make money out of it ( most of you guys know who i am personally and know what go fast boats and parting mean to me i'm not making one penny )...i'm doing it just to have good times and still be able to boat in the winter time in the Paradise state of fl...my intentions are not like other organizations that will ask for $800 entrance fee and only give like 10% of that to the purse. i was thinking of 150$ entrance fee and ALL that money will go towards the purse for the owner of the boat ; not the passengers ( unless passenger also pay an entrance fee)....The prize money will be given on sat ( of the weekend we decide) night at the tikki bar....it will be picked from raffle tickets which i will personally open in from of everyone there, so that no one thinks i'm in favor of anyone......there would be a 1st,2nd and 3rd cash money prizes along with three REAL nice trophies (whatever other goodies i can get from sponsors if i do get any of course) all this depends on how many people attend........
I will also take care of making reservation for the hotel and the slips ( of course everyone pays there own...you guys would pay me which ever way you guys want and i'll pay the hotel ) I'm going this weekend to the keys to find out what group discount we can get for both the hotel and the slips....

What do you guys think ?[I]

You would need to line up the chopper but he would shoot for free and just sell his photos to whomever wanted them. The big thing is he knows how to shoot from the chopper.
