You don't have enough livers, Plan on going home wrecked. Other then that Columbus day regatta at Elliot key Myself and friends drink more at the Havasu Poker run then any other weekend of the year.
If you need a detailer when you get the boat in to town let me know all post the # for ya.
Have fun
Randy, if you're coming this far, might as well make the most of it. But basically, Platnum Powerboat Club and Lake Racer LLC is doing the "puttin' on the wish" boat runs which co-inside with the make a wish foundation. If you want to roll out early and give rides to some less fortunate kids than roll out Tuesday so you can run on Wed. After that there's a street party Thursday, poker run Friday, Shootout Saturday and races Sunday. Full schedule of events for an epic event!
If the boat is being sent to havasu, you can fly into Vegas, rent a car and drive the 2 hours to Havasu or you can get a hoppper to Havasu, but I hear the drive is usually less time than actually flying (unless you can talk Brandon into just flying you out on the Gulfstream!!). Make some time to chill in Vegas on the way home a couple of nights and you'll make a nice week out of your time!
Glad to hear you're coming out. See you out there! If you need anything, you know you can alway call or email and I'll take care of you as well as you took care of us in Miami, just kidding, we'll actually take care of you!:eek::sifone:
