Default Velocity Fest 2007 - Official

Here's some more preliminary information. I'm still working out all the various costs for this year but I expect the per boat cost to be a little higher then last year since NJ is more expensive then MD.

Velocity Fest 2007

Date: July 28 - 29, 2007

Locations: Forked River, NJ to Trump Marina Casino in Atlantic City, NJ. We’ll start at South Winds Harbour Marina in Forked River. See www.southwindsharbourmarina.com. The marina has a launch ramp, trailer parking, transient docking, fuel and a marine store. For the crew, South Winds offers a great restaurant and a poolside bar with evening entertainment. Trump Marina Casino is a fantastic over night destination featuring a first class marina, dockside dining and entertainment, full resort amenities plus the exciting casino atmosphere. See www.trumpmarina.com.

Length: 90 miles round trip via ocean or inter-coastal route (your choice)

Invitees: Restricted to VELOCITY Powerboat owners and crew.

Registration: All boats and crew must be registered 1 week in advance.

Venue: $xxx per boat includes launch and rig parking, Friday night reception for two, a full buffet breakfast for two on Saturday, two Velocity Zone T-Shirts for early registrants and a chance to win $200 worth of chips (or cash). Additional crew tickets can be purchased at $xx per ticket. Hotel (if desired) and docking fees will be extra.

Safety: Poker Run 10 Commandments will be in effect and safety procedures will be covered at the mandatory Captains Meeting Saturday morning.

Comprehensive information, including the registration form, will be available in early May for download from www.velocityboats.com.

I should have an affordable Atlantic City hotel option for us contracted later this week. I'll also post a couple of other AC hotels for your consideration as well as some suggestions for those arriving Friday in the Forked River area. Please book hotels ASAP (and cancel later if needed) as this is a peak summer weekend and is already selling out! I'll take care of reserving the docking at Trumps (and at Forked River if desired).
