Awesome pictures. What Poker Run was this and when was it? I boat all over Tampa Bay and have not heard of Tampa Yacht Club...were is it?

The Tampa Yacht Club is the Rattlefish

Looks like posts 10 and 13 (last pic in both posts) that kids are driving the boats on dad's lap! That is a great idea in a poker run! Does PRA have that in the rule book? :eek:

Steve took his SBRT sticker off, the boat looks like $hit now. :evilb:

Re: Sarasota Lunch Stop and A View From The Bridge
 

OK, thanks! I go to Rattlefish 2-3 times a month and never new it's called Tampa Yacht Club.

Re: Sarasota Lunch Stop and A View From The Bridge
 

Mike,
From what I hear, the Tampa Yacht Club bought (or owned) the whole property. They are building a new dry stack and condos. The dry slips will be owned not rented and the Rattlefish will be closed to the public and open for members only :mad: It would be a nice place to keep my boat but the prices are ridiculous

Re: Sarasota Lunch Stop and A View From The Bridge
 

Actually I think they do, but since I know the guy in the Cig with his girlfriend riding shotgun I know she hardly qualifies as a kid. Can't speak about the other boat. These may have been some of the boats that were DQ'd.

Same deal as someone riding on the engine hatch at speed while out in the ocean that I have seen photos of at other events. Not wise no matter what the rules are.

CR,

The Cig I was looking at was a 42 Yellow/Blue stripe and the pic has a huge guy sitting in the passneger bolster (shotgun as I would call it) and the driver looks like he is sitting with a kid on his lap. It could be possble that it is a woman standing in front of him but either way it is real tight and not what I would want to see running next to me at 60+ mph. I think PRA has the right idea with the safety requirements like PFD's etc.

great pictures man, :cool: but boy is it depressing for this way upnorth guy that has to look and drool and only dream of that chit :(

Re: Sarasota Lunch Stop and A View From The Bridge
 

OK, I lied. :D

I got a few more... after looking through the pile again last night, I decided these boats look way too nice to keep to myself.

Cosmic- sorry bout your geographical difficulties. If you arent too busy on Thanksgiving weekend, come on down... Ft Myers Offshore is planning a little fun run on Saturday... we can make room for one more! :drink:
