It was nice meeting everyone, another great day on the water. We had everything from a Tiara to a Skater and Spectre cats, Rays 26 AO was the center anchor for a while with my Pantera, and Andrew 22 Scarab spacing out the big cats. I forgot my camera, but will try to sponge some pics off the others

Hey Rick, thanks for putting it all together today, we could not have had better weather, and nicer people. Met up with some old friends today, and made some new ones, all great people and we had a great time. We should try and do it again soon, Thanks again. Had a great time running with Gary out in the ocean, he was trying to lure us to the Bahamas to find rough water, or at least a few freighter wakes to even things up.

Michael

The thrill of victory = getting it all bolted up and looking good.

The agony of defeat = a new hose refusing to stay on the pump.

After 12 hours Saturday and 2 hours Sunday, I didn't even have enough energy left to get mad. Just packed it up, snapped on the cover and put it away. We ended up at the beach, at the end of Spanish River, at about 3:30-4pm. I saw a cat with twin outboards running south around that time. I didn't get mad at the boat when the hose wouldn't stay attached, but I wanted to cry when I saw the ocean conditions. At least it got us talking about a Bimini trip...
