Either way I'd like to hook up with your club eventually...been runnin' poker runs up north here for over 15 years and currently organize the Apostle Islands PR on Lake Superior.

Gary,

Bring the CC. We are going to have enough boats to have 2 groups. I want to be able to let the "Big Dogs" run and enjoy then selves by running at their speed offshore of Sanibel / Captiva and have a separate group that will run 50 - 60 MPH max up the intercoastal and have both groups meet inside Boca Grande Pass. From there we will head into Charlotte Harbor and up to Punta Gorda.
We look forward to meeting you.
Bob

I want to thank Bajarick. While Rick and Monica cannot join us on this run he called to say that he is sending up a $100.00 donation to help with our fund raising efforts for Yvonne.
Thank you Rick.

John, will have at least one more seat.

I have just updated some of the info in post number 1. Tide info has been now added. Please note that we will have a low tide the morning of the run. Would hate to see someone miss out by having their boat hung up on the lift.

The boat count as of today is 18 confirmed and a half dozen trying to work things out. Looks like we may have 25 boats.
