PBC still has the largest Cig (used and storage) inventory in the area. Maybe they will step up to host an event if there is enough interest. I have not seen any "new" Cigs at BTM, so who knows. I'm sure the liability coverage is significant, but I have not heard of any issues with the Cig event. Except a noise complaint here and there, but otherwise nothing. Who needs the factory sponsorship anyway? There is one under the radar event that might be a good weekend for it, it is call Make Party Cove Great Again, but I have not seen a date for it this year yet.

I would wager LOTO is the performance boating Mecca of the planet right now. I’d say havasu is a close second and has impressive hardware on any given weekend but LOTO edges them out with events, dealerships, and amount of BIG BALLER hardware.

How hard can it be to put your own run/rendezvous whatever you want to call it together? If I had a business there and you called me and asked if you could bring 50 to 100 of your friends to spend money at my business I would be like hell yeah. No one is going to turn you down.

Tango: Hell yes! I like to sit on the dock or go over to my neighbor's bluff martini deck and watch them! IYKYK..
Eddie: Lodging and dock space becomes the issue on the large events like the Cig run. But I agree with your statement. I believe the Skater Invitational at LOTO is private.
