"PowerBoating for a Cure" - Brand new event - Mid Atlantic

[Seafordguy]

I'm in with a crew of 4!

Another Cafe - Nice work....Hopefully you won't be drinking vodka and coke again. That made me want to gag

[BillR]

For those that will be launching boat at Portsmouth City Park, here is a map on how to get to waterside. You will also be emailed a better chart very soon.

Also here is a chart of the overall course with GPS info - pre load these into your GPS.

[Seafordguy]

Just got my email on the itinerary for this run. Looks like an incredible time. Band on Friday night, and DJ on Saturday.

Really looking forward to it....

[BillR]

Just got a BUNCH more sign ups today! Will adjust boat list after I get all info!

Gotta go booze shopping soon too. Good thing a bunch of us have F350's!!
I'll try to get a pic of all the booze in the bed of the truck!



Also, the Sheraton Hotel is totally booked up. We will have another hotel lined up today.

[BillR]

The 2 Hotels we worked with are sold out. Evidently there are 3 weddings and some conventions going the same weekend.

This is the next closest hotel. It is with-in walking distance. It would be a 2 or 3 minute taxi ride.
If you still need a room, try there.
FYI - We have NOT approached them.

What have you done !!!!!

What have you done !!!!!

One of my drive resevoirs wasn't draining through the transom assembly. Then on top of that those ****ty plastic clips that hold the lube line between the assembly and the bellhousing began leaking so I am trying to get it all fixed.

Plus I have my tails off and am going to have to order CMI rebuild kits Monday so the exhaust will quit leaking out of the lever....

SUCKS.... I am ready to party - NOT wrench. Spent Friday evening fixing my Parking brake after my ramp incident.

You got it put together pretty fast last time (maybe too fast since it isn't RIGHT!)...you should be able to get this one back up and running by next week. If not, you look like you'd make a good boat bit(h....and Kelli great eye candy!


Give me a call later this week, we may have an empty boat if you need ride.

I am sure that it is for Kelli you are just a byproduct.

The Marriott Courtyard has rooms:
http://www.hotels.com/property.do?po...&s=1&CIMonth=8

The search should pull up
Courtyard by Marriott Norfolk Downtown
520 E Plume St
Norfolk, VA, 23510
866-539-0036

They do have rooms, and you can walk, stumble or super quick taxi - it is 0.18 miles from the event.
As a comparison - the 2 Hotels that we have deals with - the Sheraton is 0.4 miles from the event and the Marriott is 0.17 miles from the event.

So the Courtyard is really close by!!! Want a room? Try them.
Someone just booked a room there via Priceline for $69.00 (under make an offer)

CMI's leaking at the joint between tails and header? - Quick fix: Use 2 gaskets on each joint. Water leak fixed 100%.

I hear ya on wrenching!! :bigear:



BTW:
One thing that EVERYONE needs to know - At the lunch stop, NO food, NO drinks, NO alcohol can be brought into the pool area!!
Only you and a towel! That rule will be strictly enforced by the marina staff. That is their rule and we will abide by it.

Everything is falling into place nicely. I'll load a picture of the truckload of booze if I can. The bar list is - WOW!

I've had my turn with a broke down boat and being a rider, be glad to do the same for someone in need.

Actually Bill they are leaking where the Silent Choice lever goes through into the tail.
