I thought about driving instead of flying, but I wanted to check on dockage before making any plans. I called the FPC office, but it is closed for the boat show. I called the Galleon directly and the guy on the phone said that they were "sorta closed" for Fantasy Fest and that he didn't know what was available and could not check until Monday.

So, I went ahead and winterized the boat, shrink wrapped it and tucked it away for the winter. We are flying out this Tuesday for Key West and will be there through the 17th. We did sign up for the parties with the FPC, so we'll see you all down there!!

A bunch of us from Texas will be there. Fly in on Thursday morning.

Can't wait for you guys to get here. We got here today and the weather is perfect. We hit up Alonzo's for 1/2 price happy hour, took a swim in the pool and now we are getting ready to go out for the night. I am actually sitting on the back deck of the house right now as I am typing this. I love this weather!! I'll get some pictures posted soon. We are gonna go hang out with the Parrot Heads now. I'll keep you posted.

Anyone got recommendations on rooms? i don't need the hyatt or anything, just something cheap to get some shuteye once in awhile.

Gary add another one from the LSC group!!! :drink:

I think you'll need a guest pass from one of the race teams if you're not planning on being a member of SBI

As far as the room, do you want stumbling distance or driving distance? :D We are booked at the Southern Cross (stumbling distance) http://www.southerncrosshotel.com/

or you can try the Southern Most Hotel (driving distance - or stumbling distance if you lose your scooter/vehicle)
http://www.southernmost-hotel.com/

Gary864 11-04-2009 04:39 PM

And you being a Phantom owner, I think that makes all the LSC and maybe all of Michigan's Phantom Owners will be in Key West. Maybe we can get Will to supply us a few shirt to wear. LOL If you see me stop me I will either be wearing Phantom or Sunsation shirts. I am bring my wife so she will be keeping me on the straight and now path.

The weekly bull riding competition at Wild Bills was packed tonight. It's late and I am ready for bed, but I feel somewhat obligated to share at least a few pictures with you guys tonight (censored for this section). More pictures to follow tomorrow.

OK. Just one more. This was from round one, but she was the eventual winner so she deserves to have at least one picture posted. Fourteen contestants, but this girl took home first prize (over $1000).

She looks like a winner to me.

The pix are proof enough, but posting at 4am... you are definitely in Key West. :drink::drink:

Ms PatriYacht 11-05-2009 11:36 AM

Gary Ian and I will be there, but I am starting to think we don't qualify as Lake St. Clair boaters any What ever happened with Patty and Rick's boat, did they have it in this past season, are they coming with you.

Dawn I believe I scored passes, so we will see you at the party. Who's having the Thursday night party, we will plan on stopping at that one, you will probably get in to late for that one.

Awesome!! Good job on the passes :cool: The Thursday party at the Hard Rock is a SBI party. Id like to think it will still be going on when we get there but since Friday is a race day, Im sure it wont be :D

Gary864 11-05-2009 11:56 AM

Donna

I did not see Ric and Patty this summer. I believe their boat was back in the water but I was out this season. I used the jet boat but weather did not get us as many chances as I had hoped. Hope to see you guys in Key West

It's funny how Ian and I communicate through the message boards, he just called me from work to ask about the passes, apparently he is following this thread. I told him "sorry honey I am not permitted to divulge my contacts":drink:

fantastixvoyage 11-05-2009 04:37 PM

Donna and Ian I look forward to it!!! Might as well ask up front...mind spottin' me bail? :drink: Come to think of it was an FPC party that night too....


Anyone stay (or staying) at sheraton suites? It was the cheapest I could find anywhere - $186 a night (3 @249 / fourth free). A little concerned, last time I grabbed a "bargain" room it was on the "wrong" side of Key West. :grinser010:


May hit holiday isle on the way down thursday instead of staying in miami. Is the Tiki bar still goin strong? been 5 years since I was there.

Let me know if we need to pick you up on the way past :evilb:

fantastixvoyage 11-05-2009 05:43 PM

That could work, but then I would need a ride back to miami on tuesday! :drink:

Strong debate between Miami or the Tiki bar for thursday night...you might be the swing vote! :kiss:
