I'm thinking of doing this poker run this year and I haven't heard much about it yet except it draws about 150 boats. Anyone have any details on it? I can't find an exact date online, I know it's sometime in June but there are 2 different weekends referenced--June 5-8 or June 12-15. I'll be trailering from CT.

Yo Dave/Kristen, the dates are the 12-15 for this year. Were going down as well!! Convoy from CT?? I've heard its a great event as well. All the dates are on www.flpowerboat.com Were also thinking about doing Emerald Coast instead of 1000 Islands this year. More boats and i think a better poker run. The Florida Powerboats Club seems to have the best events out there now a days.

Hey Dan--We will definitely do Jacksonville if you guys are going for sure. We can trailer down there together. The APRA stuff is getting a little old--but I'm not sure about the Emerald Coast yet. Thanks for the link, we'll register for it soon. Not sure if you got my email from this site but give me a call when you have a chance (203) 671-7271. Dave

93 octane is available on the water at the marina beside the launch ramp. There is fuel all along the runs that info. will be in your CAPTAINS kit.

If you read this info. you will not run out fuel like BULLETT PROOF did lol.

This is a must-do run. Bill and the crew are the best. If I moved to Alaska, Jax and Key West would be events I would still never miss.
