Don't you have a couple a boats to be getting ready for a big show about that time?????

Are you going to miss the Winter Chill Out? Reckless has it listed as the 26th on the HRPA web site??

During the Jupiter Hot Boat event this past September, we rented the entire El Capitan section at Holiday Isle. The efficiencies are old but they were comfortable. We had all the boats in the Lagoone right in front of the efficiencies and the Rumrunners bar was adjacent to the Lagoone....I'm just not sure if your big boats can get through the shallow water to reach the lagoone. We had no problems trimming up the eggbeaters & idling...water was about 3 feet deep. It was great because you could see your boats right outside the windows in the lagoone, we had great evening bar b ques just outside our doors, and the Miami Vices and Rumrunners were only 25 paces away!! not too mention the great view each evening. Made quite a few loops from the bay to Tavenier Creek and back to Holiday Isle, there's some great snorkling within minutes at Alligator Light also!!

Three things come to mind here
1. It's going to be too cold for to go
2. Your boat does not seem to like long trips anyway
3. Nobody is going to get near you and a hottub with the way your pants fall down

It's not the long trips his boat does not like. It's stopping for fuel that it hates.

The rates are comparable for all 3 hotels. I vote Holiday Isle out due to the age of the place.

Are the 700's that thirsty or did he do what I did when I first ran my boat with less than 1/2 on the gauges?

I was fortunate to make it back to the marina....on fumes.

Ditto..I was 1 mile short of the pompano inlet. I used 187gallons on the way up (700's were very effecient) and 218 back, well, I should have had 219. The problem with the smartcraft is it must be balanced out on the %..When on plane it would show more cause of the attitude of the boat, but as it got down it worked very much like the gas guage, it went very quick. So a 1/2 tank does not really mean a 1/2 tank unless balanced. The other thing it was nasty, solid 6' and a few 8's so Im certain that also disrupted it's accuracy. Good lesson to learn, I figured I had enough, throttling the whole way back was a pita, but thats where the extra fuel must have went, unless Pat cifened it out at lunch

You can never have too much gas..unless you are on fire!!

could 've been those hang me downy things on the corners of the boat.........................

1. I agree here
2. neither did Radio Active, we ran out of gas here also..
3. those were all accidents, and I thought you liked my blinding white azz
