A few pics out of my archives of Keewaydin Beach for those that are not familiar with it. After lunch we will hang out here for a bit. Most just slide up on the beach but you can also anchor out.

Hello Dennis and thanks. You are welcome to join us anytime. When you saw the boat on Del Prado today, Nor Tech was delivering it to the ramp at the CC Yacht Club. I launched there then met some friends at Rumrunners for lunch before heading down to Marco. Gulf was great.

Just an idea to share for tomorrows run if we can try this. I am wondering if the lead boats can stop in front of the Ritz Carlton maybe a half mile off the beach and wait for the back of the pack to catch up? We can then run down to Gordon Pass in a pack, about a mile off the beach. If the wave action makes you uncomfortable, then just go on ahead to Gordon Pass and in.
Dan Davies in his 38 CC Fountain is going to be just off the Naples pier and will video tape all the boats as we go by. Please keep a safe distance from Dan and do not go between his boat and the pier. Thought it might be worth a try.

Have you ever launched at the new ramp off of 24th st? very very nice. and the beauty is no one really knows about it. The ramp is brand new with two double sized ramps with a very slight slope. I will be out tomorrow but we only have a few hours to play around. but for sure next time. we really want to check out KeeWaydin. I am also going to join FMO seems like a great group of people with good intensions. have a great day.
Here is a link to our website. It has a down loadable application form. www.ftmyersoffshore.org Not too hard to get your money's worth and very satisfying with our charity component.
I will post some Google pics of Keewaydin so you know where it is. Do not approach from the Gulf side !! Best access is from the Intra Coastal.
