I have spoken to Billy as well and as Chris said the run is on in full force. We should get a good turn out as well. All the event info is on billy's site.

Hmmm, the flyer I received appeared like it had Ken's OL on it. Well, at least Billy consistently knows what brand to use to represent the spirt of performance boating and poker runs! :party-smiley-004:


And yes the event is on and should be a great time! :cool:

Questions:
I have the entry form for the PR it says it is $400.00 okay I got that. Then it asks for # of crew @ $20.00 per, okay that is 4 x $20= $80.00. Then it says that each crew member must be a NPBA member and has to fill out the membership form, that is also 4 x $20 = $80.00 right? Then I was told there is a lunch in Montauk which is also $20.00 per head, another $80.00 right? I am confusing something here? So the cost for the boat and 4 crew is really $640.00? Someone set me straight if I have this wrong. Also why does each meber have to be a NPBA member some of my crew do not even own a boat?

Good questions, that would make it too pricey for me if that's the case

Also the 20 a head for lunch and what you get is a raping. Had a good time last year but in comparison to some other runs and cost not worth the coin.

Nope, I think you have the general gist of it!

Block Island for the day??? :food-smiley-009:

August/Sept

I know, I know, missing a whole season of power boating, but that's how it is this year...

Anyone have an open seat for the poker run???

My .02 in 2007 and 2008 i dropped i think $1,200.00 for 2 people to do those runs per run! Both years Chris feed us breakfast and opened the doors up BIG TIME to his shop. :thankyouthankyou:So i'm doing the math and i'm saving money. :evilb:

I'm real bummed out that alot of you guys are not going!

Ya....... I asked my Dad to pay for the entry fee and my gas, and all the "extras", but for some reason he said no??????? I need a new Dad. :party-smiley-004:

You too Frank and Scot????????

Add me to that list! Old man laughed at me and said "sell the boat of you're waiting for me to pay for anything"

Charge $1200 for a local PR today and I think you'd be one of one or two boats! :lolhit:



BTW, I forgot to say how nice it is of OP to be so supportive of this run... Thanks Chris! :cool:

Anyone know where the first card stop is? Might head out on my 350ss and watch the boats fly by.

Was out yesterday in the river up here for a few hours newport Bristol and so on ready for the Borden light run

I hear you guys had a good day on the run. Any damage reports. Kev, Scot, Jason and myself headed out to Block. It was nasty rough some monster confused seas and choppy to boot. But we mangaed to have a good time, not to mention a killer ride home. Kev any pics or video?

:evilb: Buying a couple for sure!:thankyouthankyou: NEVER ORDER WITHOUT IT!:evilb:

I am going to the other run with a couple new friends i made on this run. We all ran together talked about what a good time we had and decided to meet at the next run also Jamie and a couple guys from OP probably will go on that CIG that has COME BACK HARD AND WHAT A SHINE ON THAT BOAT! THE OCEAN PERFORMANCE CIG.NOBODY CRYED AND SAID ANY BULL**** ABOUT RUNNING TO CLOSE as they were all into it.We ran at 80-84 mph with helicopter for 15-20 min. I was impressed with the crowd and the karma. I wish that more people i know had come on that run!

:Score-101010:

Scot made a good point......looks like the Cig is trying to stay away from you as best he can! Hahaha... :lolhit:

Scot told me this was the reason he did not want to do the poker run, he felt it could be unsafe.

11th and 18th

You should have kept the $1200 buks in your pocket and followed us to Block , another epic day and you could have watched us catchin air all the way to Block. There was some monster waves.....stringer buster Scot said:party-smiley-004:

How much money would i save if i did not ?
 

The run was $400 most drinkers piss that away in a couple days, if not in one. :poopoo:

P.S. i didn't pay a dime for the run it was all paid for by my crew!
:lolhit::lolhit::lolhit::lolhit::lolhit::lolhit::l olhit::lolhit::lolhit::lolhit:

Haha no wonder you like those runs. I had Kevin on my boat he is really cheap he even snuck out on the dinner tab Saturday night. Ask Scot all about it.
