Ron's isnt far.....we are staying at Camden and always go to Ron's to grab a bite and a shirt even if we had a boat every year. so its no biggie to go there.

thinking that may be the plan unless someone pops up with a boat out if no where

get a shirt with NATE 5.0 printed in big letters on the back then plant your ass at the outdoor cabana bar. Watch it on TV and let everyone here know you need a ride out to the course.

If I can't be there, I watch it from home on my big flat screen smart TV just so I can read the banter going on between TRL and Jason.

Best time I had was when Bob Morgan ran side by side with his son. At the last minute, Sue yelled to a buddy of mine to jump on their center console chase boat to watch the run. She waved for me to come along and I didn't think much of it at the time. Little did I know what I was getting to experience. Bob was a one of a kind.

I like to watch from my boat tied up to a large cruiser with big anchor.

We don't go, but the TV coverage is actually pretty good. Probably better than being there if you want to have a good view of the boats running. I'm sure its a good party though!

Either here or on midwestboatparty there should be a thread of out of towners looking to get out on the water. I don't know what our plans are right now, but would be open to some extra passengers on a last minute basis.

always enjoy meeting new folk, enjoying the venue, having a beer, and paying our way as needed to do so.
