Long Point/Sportsmans Lodge Gathering 05/08-10/2015
1 Attachment(s)
Just got off the phone from Sportsmans Lodge and booked a week that includes the Friday included weekend of the 8th through the 10th of May. It is the only open weekend with good availibility of rooms at the off season rates. There is limited boat slips but the public ramp is 50 yards from the hotel and parking is ample at the rooms. Regardless of whether or not anyone else want to attend Mel and I are still going to spend a week there so if we can get one other member on board we will have a gathering. Again, Grouper season will have just started and Dolphin will be in full swing.
If we book the majority of the rooms for the weekend we own the pavillion and included ammenities. If not we have to share.... either way the place is so big it wouldnt matter. Below is the link to rate and reservation numbers. The hotel is family owned and the cancellation policy is simple... ex. three day stay= three day notice before. This lets you get your reservations in without worry if weather looks bad or something pops up. Lets get this thing going and locked down! http://www.sportsmanslodge-motel.com/roomsrates.html |

View from above.... I was docked there with 8 other boats with no issue. First booked, first slip...
|
Just reserved a studio for Fri & Sat nights (8th&9th) - No idea if I am going to be able to make it but I hate sleeping in a car. I have zero expectation that my 23 will be done then.
He did tell me that there is a rate increase coming in January so reserve now if you want to save. |
Yep, just booked room #7. If we get enough folks we can have use of the pavilion. The rate increase will be about 3%.

Ken,
Thanks for taking the initiative and legwork to get this started! I just made reservations at the Sportsman's Lodge and got a Efficiency Room and a Boat slip for May 8th (Fri) and 9th. Hope to bring my boat this time! Jim |
Sweet Jim!!! If I know for sure you're coming I'll double up on the shine!!! :)
|
If a mod could please alter my title and add dates as well as sticking it to the top it would be appreciated!

I was going to say the same thing to you.... I'm in Jupiter working tomorrow. Just got here. How about an Area 442 mini gathering / boat restore how-to in January?? I hear those wild hogs make good BBQ.
|
Come on guys, rooms at this place will fill up quickly due to the start of grouper season. Easy access nice ramps and ample dockage... Don't make have to feed a bunch of strangers!
|
I'm planning on being there. Don't need a room, we stay on the boat, but might need a slip and parking, will call'em.

I just wanted to post this question in case someone was a-feared to axe. However I must confess, Bruno has a deposit for me and the better 1/3. I'll plan on easing out off of Anna Maria in late April and gigging a bunch of hogfish for a Friday night Ceviche' appetizer. Snookerd might be "fish'in on life support" by then and he could help me. Looks like we'er navigat'in towards another CSC Epic Adventure. |

Game on!
Last riverfront room booked! Packing my decoder ring for GFS, hopefully 4 family members, 1 23 Sceptre, ect.. Let's do this!
|
:) :) I'm in, however not sure if I have a riverfront suite. Us poor folks are used to being in the back side rooms.
Not too sure what happened, however I think the battery is dead in my WalMart purchased "GFS decoder ring". I've been relying on Terry to help me out. |

Concentrate on deviation. Propeller or mini solar panel? Both have advantages. |

It's only one story. Double check your compass.

Reaching Maximum Compass Deviation

Just remember, When the maximum band width of compass deviation, whether measured in Nano-farads or Light years, is exceeded and you peel back all the leaves of the artichoke - sometimes there is just a "Deviat". Just say'in! I got a hunch Sportsman's Lodge is going to be great. We just need to request that they build an elevator for Sandy. I Vacuum bagged some Hoggies I got on Saturday due west of Danny and Connor's docks for Ceviche' appetizers at Long Point. No sense in waiting 'till the last minute! I wish that "old Guy" would stay out of my pictures!!! Yes, Some are on Marsha's "Ticket" |

I had 12 artichokes and pound of butter. I was in the express lane indeed. Couldn`t cook em fast enough. |
Great job Terry! Glad to see Marsha is letting you take pictures with her stringer....

"old guy"
know what you mean. A few years back I was watching a video taken by a friend in Little Cayman. This old, mostly bald headed old coot swims into the picture. I was astonished, had not seen any other free divers out there and could not figure how I could have missed this guy. But Wait! The old coot has on a wetsuit just like mine and fins, just like mine, and a mask, just like mine. About that time, I figured out who the "old guy" was. |
