Emerald Coast Poker Run, Destin, FL
 
Who's coming to Destin, FL for our poker run this weekend? I'll be in my Sonic 358 Diablo. Looking forward to seeing OSO members for a great time on the water.

We will be there but as spectators... We'll have a big crew on Spector Island watching everyone run.

I was on the way Tuesday and ran into trailer problems that where not fixable on the road , scared to drive the rest of the way with no brakes in the rain and taking a chance I could not get it fixed there. It has taken me 2 days back at home and still don't have all the parts yet. We were 4 hours into the trip when it broke.

Seems like this poker run is not as popular as its been in the past.

This morning at AJ's, Goldigger was there, 2 Nortechs, 2 cigs, and I think a Nordic cat. In the past it's been full of MTI's, Cigarette flags flying, banners, etc.

Perhaps its early and people are coming today though. This might be the first year in a while it does not rain all weekend.

i think all the years of rain outs hurt that run a bit. I know a few people from here that were every year folk that are not going this year.

American Thunder 08-19-2016 10:14 AM

I have several friends that are here but not entering to run jus because of the price.

It's been on our radar for about 5 years but have not yet made it. I agree it seems to have lost a bit of its luster. Shame as it is such a beautiful area.

yeah it's on our bucket list also, I lived in Navarre Beach for 1.5 years back in the 90's, some of the prettiest water you can ever boat in... Love Crab island....

The rain has plagued this event for sure through the years, and there is nothing to do here when it rain other then sit in your hotel room, or sit at a bar.

Danger Zone was down there is afternoon. I'm thinking its approaching about 10 years old now? Still a great looking boat. New paint is ok, but damn does it sound vicious.

I was in ft Walton beach at my Marina this afternoon & there was a steady stream of go fast headed down to Jaunas... Pretty nice hardware, we'll be heading down to Rock the dock in an hours or so to check out all the boats.
