Add $ 10.00 for 3 or 4 people. We have the marina reserved from noon Friday through noon Sunday. Overflow docking provided by the "Quay" next door, sharing the Hyatt Basin. No docking fees. Free parking of land vehicles as well. Arrangements can be provided for parking of tow rigs. Complimentary health club. And of course, "the BoatHouse".

Identify yourself as part of the Sarasota Offshore Showdown group. Cut off date is April 29, 2004

Registration fee for the poker run is $ 75.00 per boat with Captain and First Mate. $ 10.00 for each "extra" person on board your boat. Includes 2 "official" poker run tee shirts, and one poker hand. Additional tee shirts may be purchased for only $ 10.00. Additional poker hands may be purchased for only $ 20.00 per hand.

That photo was taken at last year's OPBA Spring Poker Run. I was the card boat anchored off City Island in front of the boat show. Was told when Bob's OL took off, it shook every window in every boat at the boat show. COOL..................

Are you Sure???

I have the SBI Schedule tacked up to the wall in front of my desk, and it says Miami is APRIL 16-18, not MAY???

Lemme know if something is different, I would like to do both, but if they are the same day, I am going to have to do some thinking?????

Formula,

The Hyatt is where we met up for the New Years Day run, right????

Do you know if we will be able to use the ramp right around the corner, and if so, can trailers be left there overnight, or will the hotel have room for them?? We will be there either with our boat, or as a passenger bummin' a ride from someone else if the boat is not ready by then(I have Cuda's luck), and as long as its not the same Date as SBI. What time on Sat. do you plan on starting the run??

Rick

Rick, that is the same hotel as where we met NYD. I think you are allowed to leave the trailers there overnight. Great spot for a party! Where's your buddy Tim been lately?
