Awesome!
We are in for our 8th year in a row!
We started doing this event when it was a PRA run, it has only gotten better since becoming an FPC event!

I was a dock rat 8 years ago on my first St. Pete run.
I made a deal with a friend to bring my boat down for the run and they ended up getting sick and not bringing the boat. So I had already flown down with another friend and we spent the weekend with no boat. We had a blast anyway and decided to come back the following year without the boat.
This will be the third year in my boat. Before that I ran with my friends Bob in Speed Racer 44MTI, Gabe in a 42' Outerlimits, and Crazy Charlie for a couple years in his 39 Velocity.

The lunch stop varies but the run itself usually heads West out of the Vinoy to a card stop just west of the Sunshine Bridge. Then we turn around, head east back past the Vinoy to the east end of Tampa Bay. Last year we had a lunch stop at the Getaway which is right at the very end of St. Pete. Then we made a final card stop in Tampa and returned to the Vinoy.
