He, he. Not fair Jay but I'll take the advantage with my trip 485's vs trip 330 HP. Frank's boat was one of the earlier Nor Tech's with diesel and continues to run strong.
Just getting in the car for the 24 hr drive to Marco. See you Saturday and have that big picture shooter of yours all ready to go !!

This past few weeks, Ft Myers Offshore, Inc. has signed a number of new corporate, charter, boaters and social memberships. I am traveling today but when I get some time probably after we do our run, I will start a new thread introducing the new members. The future for FMO looks great and we will be off to a good start with this Saturday's run. !!

Last minute stuff
While we will all leave the Sanibel Bridge at 11 AM we may not all arrive at Gordon Pass together. The first boats to arrive at the sea bouy outside of Gordon Pass should wait for all boats to arrive before we proceed single file into Naples Bay. On arrival at Naples Bay Resort, our dockage will be inside the basin on the right hand side. Once we are all tied up and boats secure, we should all gather with our Toys for Tots, and Jay will take a group picture of us turning over our toys to the Marines that will be there to receive them. Once that is out of the way, we are free to wander around and take in what we can of the Stone Crab Festival. There will be water taxi's there that can take us to any of the waterfront restaurants if you do not feel like walking. Stay as long as you like. Some of us may go to the beach at Keewaydin Island at some point but that is optional. Enjoy.
Feel free to call me if you have any questions. 239-776-0481
