[QUOTE=mickeymcclgn;4199899 Since it is the performance boat Mecca where can I go to check out some cool stuff? [/QUOTE]


It's not performance boat mecca like you think bud. There's 5 to 6 places to go see but don't expect to see any performance boats running on Biscayne Bay or anything. It's NOT what it use to be at all. The boats you will see at Cigarette, TnT, Chief Performance, Fast Boats etc 95% of them are not from South FL. I live here and I want to buy a place in LOTO for the spring and summer because to me that's a performance mecca. Now in the winter time and after KW, some boats stay down here but even that is not how it was 6 to 7 yrs ago. Sucks really sucks that the place where it all started lost its vibe for some moons ago.

What about Larry Goldman & Xtreme Marine, aren't they close to Phil & TNT?

Also Brand X is in Pompano.

Well then I guess I should clarify. Performance boat manufacturing meca. I'd like to visit Afew shops to see Afew things not expecting to see boats everywhere, also I'm only going to have a day or so to look around not exactly a week.. I live on the Chesapeake bay which mile for mile id put one of the best boating areas in the US as far as waterfront bars/restaurants and coves rivers. We even have a 300 page book of waterfront destinations.


But anyways I'm more of a nuts and bolts guy anyways I like to see how things are made.


Brian, I just might take you up on that. I met you at JOTJ on Sunday. I had the yellow/red/black Baja.

Larrys place is probably 6-8 miles from Tnt....

Not even 2 miles away.

I wasn't trying to sound like a douche head, but just don't want you to come thinking you are going to see them running around in the ocean or Biscayne bay as you would see them at LOTO, Grand Lake, Havasu. On the performance shop side we have many of those and some of the best in the industry. Tommy at Chief is a must. As far as places to eat on the water not many either besides Montys on the beach, Montys in Coconut Grove which is next to Grove Harbor Marina (some performance boats there TnT has more), Scotty's on the bay.
