The ONLY multi-boat event on the east coast that involves not only a performance boat poker run, but a cruiser/family boat course; sailboat regatta; fishing tournament; and children's fishing tournament off a local fishing pier all in one event.

TWO party's
FOUR T-shirts
FOUR passes to TWO party's (5:30pm-10pm with live bands)
FOUR vouchers for the lunch stop (Hooters Norfolk Waterside with docking at city marina)
Margaritaville (intermission) immediately following run from 3-6pm dockside.
Silent auctions with cool stuff to be had cheap.
Various Raffles
"Ditty-bags" for each captain with giveaway goodies
Helicopter photos (working on video prospects)
FIVE prizes for top five hands beginning with $1000
FIVE stops (three long BIG water legs)

Here's the kicker......All this for ONLY $175.00 . Best poker run deal on the east coast and registration remains unlimited until our annual maximum is realized. BONUS: If you postmark your registration's by June 1st it's only $150.00 for all the above.

How so cheap? Thanks to 3 big generous local sponsors; the many donations; and the proceeds from registrations, silent auctions, raffles beverage sales, etc. our entry fee essentially only has to cover our lunch, t-shirt, and party participation overhead.

Additional event benny's:
- Free splash off your trailer via forklift at Marina Shores in Va Beach with trailer parking up to 20k lbs.
- Overnight slips available (special rates) adjacent to the party's & start/finish line at Bay Point & East Beach Marina's, Pretty Lake Ave. Norfolk. Additional slips located at Marina Shores, Va Bch.
- Truck/trailer parking adjacent to the party area for those who choose to trailer after the run.

Attached is generic map of the course. This years has been modified slightly, but is essentially the same. Course is approximately 85-95 miles. This will cover the oceanfront of Va Bch; lower ChesBay & bridge tunnel; local inland channels; Elizabeth River which passes the largest Naval base in the world; and downtown Hampton & Norfolk Waterside where the Battleship Wisconsin is moored near the lunch stop.

We had such a great time last year, this is one poker rub you can not afford to miss. The event is really thought out to the last detail. Cant wait to do it again.

Registrations are flying in and the time nears. We had the kickoff party the other night to generate sponsorships down at the Norfolk Waterside area in Nauticus and it was a huge success. Just five weeks to go....

How Rough is the Water on this run? How many miles over all? Tuvell was telling me about it this weekend when he was Testing his new toy out...but he made it sound like if ya don't have a Big Boat...stay home? I like the Cause...and I Boat in the Northern Bay.....I might be able to recruit a couple of guys from our Atlantic Coast Crew?

We've got guys with 22' Scarabs and a guy with a 20' Wellcraft running w/o problems.

It is a great run. The folks who put it on do a 1st rate job!!!

Mr. T was surely embellishing the story about our great southern ChesBay/Atalntic waters. As Mr. Bill said the course is run by all shapes and sizes. If you were to have to turn around due to sea state, broke down, or for whatever, you still pull cards that you paid for. We actually hand out "chips" vice cards at each stop. The run itself is essentially a social run with bragging rights should you show up with all chips from all stops. Cards are drawn casino style at the post-run party.

Bring yourself and your friends and I GUARANTEE once you see what you get for your money you will return year after year and so will your friends....

Rick,

Bill and I were talking about this last night. We are planning to take the week of Aug 9 off from work. If we were to come down for this, do you still have room? What time is the captain's meeting? We would be coming down BY WATER Saturday morning. Just wondering how early we would have to get up.

Thanks,
Patti and Bill
