West Coast Powerboat Club "Labor Day Weekend" Poker Run
I was just wondering who's going on the run?

The wife and I will be in the area Friday & Saturday (we are doing some scouting because we are planning on moving). I would love to check out the poker run, but I was wondering if there are any places to spectate from land or better yet if anyone wants a few extra passengers?

I wish I could go, my wife and I are flying into town on Sunday so we are too late.. This is an amazing run, well organized, with great scenery. As far as a place to view it from land, I'm not familiar with the card stops this year, maybe check out there web site, in the past Passa-grille or the Vinoy Yacht Basin would be excellent.

I checked out the Vinoy Yacht Basin & it looks like a nice place. I also checked out Passe Grille and learned it was not a restaurante, but an actual area. Any place in particular in Passe Grille that would be a good spot to watch?

I would check out the itinerary on there web site.. I couldn't get it to open..

Passagrille may not be a good spot this year if they start out in the gulf.. They used to start out on the ICW and Passagrille was the first area where the boats came up on a plane on the way to the first card stop.. The channel side not the beach side.

If I hear anything I will make some suggestions..
