O.K., just registered tonight! I want to take this opportunity to say what a great bunch of people! You made my wife and I feel right at home and we felt so comfortable around you all! Thanks to Carla & hubby (forgive me, I'm not good with names) for inviting us in, to Ken for the Exedrin and Sandy for the gourmet dinner Saturday night!
As a Pursuit owner, you all are O.K in my book :D Seriously, what a great group of people! Thanks to Ryan and Renee for introducing us to you all and putting up with my out-of-the-blue headache :mad:

RiverRat-Nice slam [img]/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]. Another quality gathering. I can't say enough about the hospitality of 65 Bowrider and the adult beverages compliments of Carl and Jeanne. The island life style has obviously kicked in with Skip and Carla. Thanks to all for the fish/FL lobster/food everyone provided. Great snorkeling with Denny on a 40 mile round trip on Sat. and a flawless offshore trip with Briguy on Sunday. Outstanding fishing on the Stocks and Blondes with my 2 boys.

Many thanks to all who made the mother of all gatherings!

Lets talk about the capability of the VDH hull shall we: Capt Chuck n Admiral Lil, No Bones and Patti, and D& D on Doodlebug all went out Friday...... Gusting to 30+ ,5 to 7 ft seas and they CHOSE to head out with their signifigant others. NoBones is a 20 BTW. 12 ft. swells is all I need to say. The hull tells the rest of the story here. Pressed on time. More to come.

Many, many thanks to Skip and Carla for having the courage to host such an upwelling of pirates. :D

Many Thanks to Skip & Carla!! Their "Generous Offering-Up" of their home too all us SeaCafters was beyond hospitality.

"THANK YOU" Carl & Jeanne for the Open Bar. You guys were deeply missed. BTW Carl, I want a ride in that '72 with the VDH :eek:

Congrats Carla on your first Mahi-Mahi

Although I was unable to make down for the weekend, I got a change to meet some of you on Sunday before heading out. All I have to say is.....THANKS for the hospitality, and what a great group of people!

p.s. Brazilian bikini models and water shoots yet to come..... :D

Re: Keys Results thread
 

Yes Sir!! Skip and Carla went way "above and beyond the call of duty" on their hospitality!! Thanks to all for the very nice welcome for Deb and I to the SeaCraft gathering family. However after thinking about this some more....I'm still not sure all these SeaCraft folks are 100% normal. :D

Oh yeah.....after the dinner Friday and then the mega feast Saturday night I think my colestoral is now way above anything Crestor can fix.

Anyone can be normal, it takes serious determination and dedication to be truly unique. I embrace the difference :)

Some of you have expressed an interest in the "recipe" for my world famous kick a** grillled marinated veggie terrine. I weigh ingredients when making pastry , but I dont measure when I cook, so I`ll do my best. You can pm me or I can post it here for all to enjoy at their gatherings. Whoops, I forgot our northern bretheren don`t have the recipe for gatherings.
1} pick a place and date.
2} rig for hours and hours.
3} pack up the tow rig and drag the old girl doiwn the road.
4} ENJOY!
Like most great recipes, it requires few ingredients and outstanding execution!

Re: Keys Results thread
 

What else can be said that has not already been covered...
Skip & Carla a BIG Thank-you for going all out!!
Jeanne and Carl thank-you for the fasionable adult beverages. Wish you could have been there to enjoy with the rest of us.
The fresh fish that all contributed made this the BEST
one yet..
At least no-one left skunked in catching a fish in the Keys.

For our new found friends DonV & Deb (Five-O) there were no guarantees either expressed or implied as to the normalcy of this group. :eek: :D
BTW, your fried Mahi was to die for.. Thanks!!

As for the Friday afternoon outing in those 10+ foot waves
in 280 ft water 13 miles out was a true test of my
wifes courage enjoying the roller coaster. :)

Greg (my cuz) "river rat" maybe you can make the next one.
You are always looking for an excuse to vacate the frozen
tundra of NH... :rolleyes:

Not as many pictures taken this time, I was too busy Partying, drinking, eating, fishing (& actually catching too!)
Food: Serviche, (can't spell), sushi, smoked King, bacon wrapped grouper or yellowtail, fried dolphin fingers, charcoal everything else ... a true fresh fish smorgasbord!
Here's some of the fun times ... Party ... Party!

This gathering was such a blast! Skip and I were so pleased to be a part of it and to share.
Thanks to NoBones for the fishing trip Saturday & bringing in the king mackerel and to Capt. Chuck for Sunday's trip where I caught my first Dolphin!
