Correct! Wiggins Pass. conveniently located next to the Cocohatchee River park with a pretty good public ramp for those who trailer.

Jay, perhaps you could post one of your famous Google-Earth shots of Wiggins Pass and the public ramp?

??????? Dennis, I was going to say something like - lets see, a hurricane moves at less than 20 MPH and you have one boat that runs 130+ and another one that runs over 160 and you won't come out and play ? LOL However there are probably other reasons such as insurer not willing to cover until November. I know my insurer tried that on me and I said - OK, just don't cover me for any named storm, I'm going boating ! A little easier for me to do with Predator stored inside a new building up to code.
In any event we do look forward to you and Erica joining us when you are ready.

Lets get together in Key West if you have some time.

I'd love to hook up with you guys on any of the above dates. Looking forward to meeting all of you whenever that ends up being. Not sure if we can run to the Keys in our boat, but we can always take the ferry.

WTF Tom ?

Actually we are heading to Belgium for 2 weeks and get back early October. Then head for Hawaii for 2 weeks and return at the very end of October. Then off to Florida and splash the boat and head for the races.

I thought I would spare you the details. I would rather be boating. But a weenie?

Bob,

I'm not crazy about New Years Day. I don't recoup as well as I used to and a lot of crew tends not to show.
