Enticer Rick,
I have a 2001 290 PQ with twin 454's (310 hp). On gps I run about 64.7 mph. Your new boat looks great. A bunch of people from this site and others are going to meet up in lake of the ozarks for the shootout in august, you should think about going. With all the people getting togeather down there I think we will be doing some major rafting off, we will definately fill up a bar

270 Laser,
You'r laughing at us aren't you
How has your weather been down there? We were invited down to Marco Island with some friends of ours to stay at thier house for a week this month but we took a pass. When we go down in October I will let you know the date and we will have to hook up for dinner. They have a 34 proline center console at thier house so maybe we could even meet for lunch by water.
Have you been doing much boating?

Pwrquest,
It was cold today, it's only getting up to 69. High 70's and sunny the rest of the week. We took the boat out for dinner and a night cruise this week. Next week is the Miami boat show
so have to make it over there. I'd love to hook up when you come down. Marco Island isn't that far from me by boat. Talk to Ya! Jim

Now a Friend has a 2002 PQ290 with small blocks and he get up to around 68mph because of the less weight.
As far as loto I think its going to be a great time,cant wait.

Jim,
When the Gulf is rough is there very much intercoastal you can run?
I might have asked you already but have you ever been to Stans in Goodland on a Sunday (I think that is the only day it is open) If not you have to go and let me know what you thought. The place is awesome
You can get there by boat but there is not much parking so you might be better off to drive.

Calvin,
The Gulf is usually pretty calm. The worst I have been caught in were 4-6's. As far as other waterways, The Caloosahatchee river splits Cape Coral and Ft Myers. The river goes across the state through Lake Okeechobee and out into the Atlantic. We also have San Carlos Bay, Estero Bay, and Pine Island sound. Which are all sheltered. There are some shallow area's just like the chain. A good chart is a must!
I've never been to Stans Where are they at? I'm always game for a new restaurant. I usually go to Snug Harbor on Ft Myers Beach or Rum Runners on the Cape. They both have plenty of parking.

Jim,
Here is the site for stans www.stansidlehour.net
I heard they were only open on sunday but I see that is not true. When we go it is on sunday and it is a blast
When you go let me know what you thought. There is also a couple of small shops there.It is mostly an adult crowd but there are some children there, I don't know if you have kids but I figured I would let you know.
