Rick

MIKE

I'll try....sounds good Rick.

im in for miami....

Dreamer,

we will see ya for sure in Miami this summer some time, recently I have been staying closer to home, I frequent Haulover sandbar in the summer, and recently discovered Ellitott Key, so you can bet we will be down once the water warms up.

Rick

Mike,

I know your busy these days, but if ya can sneak out for a bit, like I said, even if ya cant get the boat out, your welcome to ride along, I usually go solo on this type of run, since the wife is impatient and likes to get home early.

Rick

Steve,

Rick

We are in!!! Can't wait, it's almost here, looking forward to meeting you all.

You can make Lauderdale, it's not that far.

how far from haulover?

saturday.... spring break.... elliott key...... hmmmmmmmm

15-20 minutes

Since you all know how long it takes to get from place to place.
I putting in at Ft Pierce inlet and going to run the outside if possible, how long will it take at 45-50 ?
By the chart looks like about 80 miles ???

Just don't want to be late for lunch.......

why put in so far north?

80 miles, hmm....If it's calm I think you're looking at 2 hours minimum door to door.

I'm in! Rick stop by Saturday. Got a blown head gasket. Will be at the side of the house putting it back together.

Bring it to Pompano, there is a great place to put it in & plenty of parking for the trailer & truck.

If referring to the 14th St. ramp, he's concerned about the tides there.

Yep, tides play a big factor with my floating condo, plus we can get in the water faster and not have as long of drive.
That ramp at Ft. Pierce is huge and plenty of docking, taking my truck and trailer over to Harbortown to park in secure lot all week.

How big is his boat and how much water does it drew

42 BT

Like Steve said 43 Black Thunder and the problem is the stepped hull getting on/off need alot of water. Drafts like 32'' but like to have more.

In one week, we'll be in Miami, can't wait.

I load and unload my 42' Fountain at the Boynton ramp all the time. Tell me about what time you will be passing Boynton inlet I may join you for the day.

So will a few of us, come down to Miami Beach Marina and hang out with us.

I plan on launching from the Ft Pierce inlet at 11:00 on Sat. the 14th,so how long until where you are I don't know.

Woops, sorry James.

Didn't mean to short you a foot. :party-smiley-004:

I am used to it,the wife shorts me all the time.......LOL

Hi i am in, i am flying down on sat, Our boat is at Hideaway, so we r right there !

Great!! Looks like were going to have a nice turn out.

Cool, see you there.

I pm'd you my cell.

Sounds Great !! i meant flying in on Fri 3/13

Rick do you think there will there be enough docking for the crew ?

Looks like 7 or 8 boats by my count.

We can always raft off the BT condo.....

Us too.

Where are you staying Friday night?

We're at the Richmond in SOBE, probably dinner on Ocean Dr., then the Clevelander.....:ernaehrung004:....for a little bit. :D

Yep, had 27 boats of me at Hardorfest last year......can do !!!!

We are planning a run to Key Largo on Sunday for lunch if anyone would like to join us.

I've got room for 3 people.

Anyone have any great lunch spot recommendations?

Steve
