Canoe Races
 

Hello Everyone-

So who from the Cape Coral/Fort Myers area is planning on going to the Canoe Races on saturday? I will be heading down there with a boat full people and was wondering if anyone wanted to meet up and make the run down togther?

Let me know

Thanks
Don

So is anyone goinng to the races or to Keywandin on Saturday?

Yes we will be there although we only have a 5 min idle to get there

I plan to be there can anyone tell me if there are any shallow parts to watch out for coming from the Sanibel bridge, and kind of how to get there my GPS is not working and I will be using a chart.

If you head south from Sanibel bridge you will turn in @ Gordon's pass (about 25-30 miles) follow the markers in and there will be a T in the channel, going north at the T will take you into Naples Bay(about 1 1/2 miles to the canoe races) and going south at the T will take you to Keywaddin (about 7 miles to total mayhem) as far as shallow parts go upon entering Gordon's you want to stay in the markers as the north side of the pass gets shallow at low tide out about 1/4 to 1/2 mile once in the pass just stay in between the markers and you should be good. when heading south to Keywaddin just follow the steady stream of boats at the Y in the channel and you will get there fine. We will be out tommorrow but will only be on one motor(the other one still making some funny noises)not sure if we will head down to Keywaddin but we will look for you you if you come up to the races. Tommorrow is more about partying that running fast for us

Hope to see you there
John

Hope to see you down there!

Where Are The Pics??? :D

My girlfriend still has my camera. Once I get that back tonight then I will post some. I know they won't be near the quality of your pictures, but they will at least give you an idea how crazy this place was. Most fun I have had in a long time!

Glad to hear you had fun Don. Bet the Naples Gang was misbehaving badly. LOL We really do need to see the pics tho. :D

I've got some pics of drunk girls in bikinis hanging around the boats at the Cabana Bar after the run. But I'm sure you guys would rather see pics of the boats, right ? :drink:
