I understand the pavilion, but what is a River room? I liked the Sportsman, where I met you guys for the first time in the fall of 14?, and purchased the Seafari spring 15, I believe. I have invited a buddy from grade school down that weekend, former Marine, who flew Marine One for GWB a few years, and I’d like to do Mother’s Day. I may book Thurs thru Sunday.

Vezo, Part II

Ken, could you give me the contact again for fuel tank builder in Hudson area? No hurry. Thanks.

I was talking to the woman at the front desk this morning and she asked the owners again if they would go on daily basis. (no go) I said to her that there was one guy that was looking for a week and I think he was at the last room by the water 2 years ago. Hence river room. But, you could give it a try.

I know this is not what any of us wanted to have happen, but it did for a reason...

Hopefully all that planed on coming still can..

I canceled Dockside reservation, plan to book River Palm Cottages with George
in the AM... DonV already did !!

It will be a great gathering no matter where we go !

Check out the rooms, they are all nice.
Capt Chuck said they did a total re-do recently and all is top notch...

More later...

New dates put me up against my wife's retirement trip. Might take some convincing to let me go. But just in case - any special pricing on the rooms? Do we have rooms blocked off?

Looks like we had around 12 - 14 rooms booked at the Dockside for the May date. With this late change in date and venue we probably won't have the turnout we were looking forward to. That being said, if we could get some definitive yes/no commitments maybe we could try and hold that many rooms. The last gathering at MacRae's they were very generous holding the rooms for us with a 30 day deadline before that gathering weekend. However with June 1,2 being the middle of prime fishing season it's time for us to "put up or shut up"!

Personally I cancelled my Dockside reservations, made some at the River Palm and if that does not work out for our gathering I'll cancel them also. It hurts, actually it pisses me off that our gathering dependable members like Mel and Moose got "screwed" on the Dockside issue so let's hope we can pull something together. If not we'll move on.

We really didn’t want to make alternative plans but if anyone wants to spend a day or two with us fishing offshore just let us know. We’ll have room and will be fishing every day weather permitting.

Not sure we will drag the boat down for the gathering but we will likely be there for the festivities and cornhole tournament on the Eagle boards.

Default Is Sportsman’s Lodge “Toast”?

Dang, I go down to Boca Grande for a few days and “off line” and the wheels fall off the East Coast Gathering....! I got an e-mail from them about their dock work delays and I wrote them back and said “We’ll (I) deal with the dock situation when I get there” and they e-mailed me back and said “You are Canceled”. I e-mailed them back earlier today and said “I didn’t cancel. I said I’d deal with the Dock situation when I get there”.

Did someone cancel the whole group? What the heck is going on? I had a dang manual lever King Autopilot that “held course” better than this. Tighten up - Archey Bell and the Drells.

T-3 They pulled the rug on us with there dock b-$#it...
Those of us that canceled did so individually.

Said our best option was to load boats on trailers everyday and
park across the street ! I don't think so....

They left us with no choice then to bail out..

We had to hussell to find another location like NOW.
Hence River Palm Cottages down the road a piece in Jensen..
For sure we are losing some that booked, but on the other hand we
will gain some...

If it is just Don, Deb, Patti & I, so be it... we will have fun either way !
