Cigarette Rendezvous
 

Just saw this on MWBP website...

Reservations are coming in and fast.....RSVP at [email protected] Hope to see you Cig guys there!

Too short of notice to make it..... Bummer
Looks like it should be a cool event...... I'll make the next one with a little more planning.....
Thanks

I'll second that.... The last one in Destin was an awesome event!! Unfortunately, we have too many conflicts with prior commitments in Texas and Father's Day to attend this time. Hope to be included in the next one.....Thanks

48 teams signed up!!! Going to be a great event. We still have some slots open, email [email protected] for details!

Should have a couple more from our area signing up this week.

I'm signed up

I am IN! now if the water will go down enough to load my Tub up!

Too bad it came up late, prior commitment already on the calendar

:(

Ill be there.

Looking forward to seeing the new PBC.

Beautiful place!!

I'm beginning to think I may pack a spare liver and leave the boat at home. Quinlan will likely need a co pilot and fender ***** anyway. I can handle that.

Defiantly going to be a great event. 50 boats seems to be where we are going to end up. Still have several people who have not registered that I know will make it. [email protected] Details will be sent out next week.

I'm going to try to make it, but right now my trailer only has two axles where there should be three and the master cylinder is tore out :mad::mad:

What was I thinking? Priorities have been adjusted. Anyway, somebody's gotta look after Buck.

Glad your going to make it Greg!!! Been a long time since I have seen your boat out.

Hey, I got this under control. If you want to come just to say you saw it in person, then that's your paragotive.

:)

Thanks Brett, I'm really looking forward to it. The Café has been out of the water a while for some updates, missed last season completely. It will be worth it though...

I can't wait to see it.

That's why we have a big quiet boat, and a Stan to get us there safely:ernaehrung004: Hopefully I'll have a nice comfy new floor to stand on.

God bless that man.

Stan is The Man when it comes to DD

Just a few more days!

A few of us are coming down from Michigan and is there any place on the lake that we need to be aware of. Hope fully we can run with some guys that know the waters.

I imagine the guys at PBC will be great hosts Friday - Sunday in addition to any locals you'd run with. A majority of the main lake/channels have good water depth. With all the recent rain there may be some debris (wood/trash mainly) in the water to keep an eye out for while running. Many local watering holes to check out.

Don't worry Relaxing, I'm sure no one will be left out.

For 99% of the areas you'll be running if you are 20 feet from shore you'll have plenty of water. At the 14mm, in front of the Lodge of the Four Seasons there is an island that has a shallow rock reef extending to the point - it is marked. Don't cut thru there.

And beware of the Pain n the Azz w Floaters!!! BAD very BAD lol See you guys in a few days!!
Hopefully the Hurricane moves on East by then!

Boats are starting to arrive!! Just got off the phone with Skip and he is excited to join us for the event. I am looking forward to weekend as well!

Headed out tomorrow. I hope the weather cooperates. Do any of you know how to update a 8000 series Garmin? I've missed about 20 updates and can't figure out how to get the damned thing to load.

Kent will be there he should be able to get it for you.

A list of stops, menu, and full details will be posted tomorrow. All info will be emailed to those that registered and there will be a hard copy in your gift bags.

This is the most Exciting event of the year at the Lake - Especially if your a Cigarette Nut!!

We should be rolling by noon. Maybe riding thru T/S Bill ok maybe its Not a Hurricane lol
Gonna need a wash when we land!

For us SOTPR guys that will be running next week, can we get a water report after your run this weekend? Hoping Bill doesn't screw the water up for your event and the poker run.

Can't wait to see pics from this event!

The lake did not seem to bad tonight for the short run I had. Some real Cigs putting in at PBC after the rain. Going to be a good time!

Great kick off party last nite at Performance Boat Center; the rain is gone and the sun is out, the weather is hot and so are the boats (among other things)...fun run to Big Dicks went off without a hitch. Seeing 50 Cigs together is an awesome sight. Thanks to Mark and Brett at PBC and Skip and Bud at Cigarette for putting this together.

Any pics??

This is the only one I took this morning headed into Redhead Yacht Club - there will be plenty and video.
