2017 Summer Gathering

[Snookerd]

The group has begun to disburse....Ansley is in Live Oak, Jonas is headed to Maine, Corbin to Israel, and Jenan to Maryland. Let the games begin!

Oh NO!!! Stand back.....Danny's on the loose!!

[Bushwacker]

Don, I just signed up for one of the rooms you reserved! Danny said he had room for a couple folks on his boat, so decided it was too much trouble to haul my boat all the way over there. Although my new lady friend Arden lived on a 50' sailboat for a year in the Bahamas, she prefers a motel room to the accommodations on my 20' Seafari! Denny

I totally understand, especially after the Long Point monsoon gathering a few years ago, Deb says lat's the last time camping is part of any gathering

Update.....so far it looks like we have the following booked.

EricB has reserved the Presidential Suite for his family and T3, Marsha and Dougie have reserved the Gator Den. Denny, Jim, Moose, NoBones, Danny, me and I think Sandy have booked the standard rooms being held for the gathering. I think that's close to correct. Plus TerryE, Moose and myself are also staying Thursday night.

More to come......

Amy and I booked a room with a kitchen. We have it booked Thurs-Sat nights. Hoping to get up there Thursday before Tampa rush hour starts

You guys need to learn how to sleep on picnic tables without rolling off
and cracking your coconut...

May pick up Thursday as I have a less than stellar towing history...and
I changed my trailer over to 4500 lb twin torsions.
I had to re-drill everything as Tragic Tilt makes all of their stuff non standard,
and I don't like their quality or attitude.

Dexter posi lubes. Thanks Chuckles.
Splooosh.

All shot with bedliner for a long life I hope.
I measured 20 times and drilled once, but as I have heard, changing from
leafs to torsion is one of the most challenging things a trailer shop can do,
and being on your back on pavement with a drill is not suggested.

Nice! Looking forward to seeing that work of art with the bedliner spray, etc.! I decided to do the leaf springs and hardware myself last go round! Do not attempt to do this without an air gun, LOL. I'm getting ready to drive back through the veterans/Suncoast Parkway up 98 to Branford this coming Thursday. The veterans Expressway is still in horrible condition for towing or driving for that matter!

Wait til you see the teak dash.
New tank.
New house wiring.

Is anyone interested in having a commemorative T-shirt made for this soon to be epic gathering? I think in the past we have done this for some of the larger gatherings. I may take on this project if there is enough interest. I have a friend in the T-shirt business that could give us a great deal on the T-shirts and screen printing. Also, we could get some corporate sponsors to contribute to keep the cost down. In fact, I'll go ahead and pledge $100 on behalf of "Louvered Products Unlimited.com"

Who is interested??

P.S. Down below you can see an example of how the Mako guys do it at their "Fun-a-ment"

I'm in! I bet Mike at IMS would be on board as a sponsor. He's a SeaCraft owner as well.
