I expect that I will run back to Marco getting off the water just before dark. Now we know how those that came all the way down from FM / CC felt for the Everglades run !! Maybe the Naples boats can all run together with me. I think some will need fuel and we will have to figure that one out.

Sounds good to me! Should be a great run.

John, I am thinking the same thing. Anything over 10' to 12' we might consider trailering also.

That's a plan, John,
If the Naples Gang are at Gordon Pass for 10:00 am and we leave shortly after we will be there before 11:00 AM. Only a 30 minute ride.

I will second that in your case
We saw you with 3 feet of air under your drives at one point on the return trip (rogue wave?) I really wish we could have snapped a picture of that for you.

We would like to head up and back with the Naples/Marco gang meeting at Gordon's again

By the way I must comment that Jayboat rocks with his picture taking/editing skills. It is very cool to have someone with your talent along
to catch the good shots

John
Thanks for the nice words, John...
since I don't have a boat I gotta make my own reality!

It was nice meeting you Saturday- I look forward to seeing you and your crew on the next run.

Thanks guys ! I like the flat water when you can get it
But when you cant you have to suck it up and try to keep the big dogs in sight ..... Even if you need a telescope
