Can we summarize a few things here
1) Estimated date(s) - I would vote for a Saturday so it could be run on Sunday if weather is a problem. I would like to arrive Thursday evening and run all day Friday since I have never been to the big lake. It would be nice to do a little practice so I can keep up (and claim my trophy in this not a race event). 2) Starting point address, marina, boat ramp etc 3) Finish - - is this going to be a round trip adventure? Where is this onion place? 4) Approximately how many miles and how far offshore do we get? 5) Fuel availability - 93, 110, ethanol issues 6) Nearby airports Since I can't do Havasu, Cumberland or any Florida runs, this might be my one and only (and first) event away from LOTO. |

Thumper, the venues discussed sound great but an idea that was brought up was Hammond and its lack of lodging. I know the CPC runs we did were well accommodated thru East Chicago/Pastrich harbor and its casino/hotel makes it very convenient. It was my understanding that they work well with groups and its only a few miles from Hammond with very good launching. Looking forward to how this rolls out, should be great. Just my .02 for those traveling from afar.

Having launched / boated from both when we lived In Il we are looking into both, having been away for over 10 + years we are relying on friends back there and coming in for turkey day to visit in person and look over the facilitys in person. Jim Jen |
