Something I did last year was team up with someone else and stay at a condo. I think I paid 150 from Thursday-Sunday, left Sunday in case there was any confusion. Of course that was a bunch of guys though.
Everything should be a little less expensive too, Summar is "officially" over after Labor Day, so it should be pretty easy to find something.
My girlfriend is supposed to be coming with me. So, I would probably have to get a room to ourselves....Sometimes girlfriends and a bunch of guys don't work out for some reason????? Of course I would pay for that one..
I'll bring another bottle of rum too......
Also,
I plan on arriving that Thursday afternoon, maybe set up and then launch the boat Friday and do some sailing and stuff like that. Juana's is pretty open to that, at least they were last year. I will be leaving on Monday also, I didn't want to make a mad dash to tear down and all of that stuff this year, so if anyone needs any help tearing down, I can help on Sunday.
Timbo,
From Pensacola, it took Tom Shannon and I about 9 hours to get to Gulfport Beach three weeks ago. However, we stopped a couple of times( had a transfer case leak I was checking) and we took 19 from Tallahassee to there, so we stopped in some of those towns. In reality, it should have taken us about 8 hours.....
This regatta is really just a fun regatta, as a matter of fact you can't protest until Sunday night/Monday morning at 1am at the dock...get my drift?
really laid back....
Mike
