We will be there thursday,hope there are more boats coming...

What stops?

We will be down there (no boat sadly) but I thought all ” stops” this year were in the water. We were hoping to see all leave the Vinoy then head to gators or Jacksons.

Also attending the festival of speed, any boats you guys are showing off this year?

I plan on stopping by....once again winter project not finished. Anyone have room for a extra passenger?

Randy

I'll be there. My wife, daughter and her boyfriend went last year to the Vinoy docks and then went over to the pier to watch everybody leave. We had a great time, so this year we going again but this time we'll also have my other two daughters and another boyfriend. Dont have a boat but the opportunity to see all the hardware in one place at one time is to good to pass up!

Six Crab Louie's and a bottle of Chivas


We will be in Thursday afternoon for the MAYHEM! :cool-smiley-027:

Rut-Row.... more of the Jersey Crew!

I recall last year the stops where Jacksons, Hula bay, and one more place in rusking but not sure if it is the same this year.

I've never done one of these runs, is a 100 mile course about the normal distance? Are there usually fuel stops for us lil boats?

Should be a great weekend to be on the water! Last weekend had identical forecast and it was gorgeous other than a little windy..

Any stops in St. Pete's beach?

There shouldn't be any on st Pete beach if all the check points are in Tampa bay

Where is lunch? I try to stop by and say Hey, with the Avanti girls on board. :)

Anybody know what time the boats are leaving Loggerhead Marina today?

10am....

Thanks PQ!

Are they stopping at Jackson's? Or what's a good stop to check them out at?

Good turnout. A little lumpy. Gusts to 20 knots. Thunder and lightning and rain in the early afternoon unfortunately. Have some nice shots i'll post later when i get in.

That's a shame the Tampa run was cut short due to weather
Looking forward to your pictures. Thank you for posting.

Post some pics as soon as you can Nick....

Will we see you and your lovely wife Easter weekend???

If you don't want to bring the Cig south let me know, we have room:)

Not sure what the Easter plans are yet. If we make it down, I'd be much obliged. Thanks! :)
