[QUOTE=Cig42X]Bob,

I will be getting to Marco Friday afternoon, what time on Saturday do you want to meet to run north, and where do you want to meet.

How about the mouth of Marco River just give me a time.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Give me a call if I don't hear from you by Thursday I will call you.

I hear the tides have been extremely low we all have to be careful going in for lunch.

Hello John,

I will meet you shortly after 10:30 AM at the mouth of the river. Only a 10 min. run up to Gordon Pass for us.

I am concerned about the tides as well. I see low tide on Friday is at 11.55 AM so I am going to run down there and make sure we will not have a problem. I want to see them anyway about positioning the fuel truck. They carry 250 ft of hose. They are going to bring some 89 octane as well @ $ 2.90 a gal. 93 octane is $ 3.13 as per first post.

Bob

Actually posting the waypoints is a good idea. I will be on the boat tomorrow and will pick them off my plotter and post tomoirrow evening.

Terry,

I gave Ron and Pam from Sarasota your cell number today so they can hook up with you for the run down to Naples to meet us.
I wonder if you would like to post the time you plan on passing under the Sanibel Bridge so others may hook up as well? Boats out of FM Beach and Bonita may just join the group as you all pass by.
Bob

Wish I could make the run this weekend.
But the boat is down again. Just can't seem to find this last Gremlin. I think it might be time to look for a new boat?!?!
I hope everyone has a great time this weekend.

Larry Jones ran side by side with me from Ft Myers to Marco today. Seas were less than 1ft to Naples, then 2' to 3' from there to Marco. Friday we will run down to Everglades City to make sure they are ready for us. Also spoke to Zach T. who is on Marco with his new 51 Outerlimits. Looks like he will be joining us as well.
Weather is looking great for Saturday's run. High of 80 deg and wind will not be a factor.
