Anyone going to the Miami Boat Show? February 14th thru the 18th.

I will be there on Friday the 15th and would like to meet any of you that are going to be there.
My wife and I will be in the Boston Whaler boat area of course.
Boston Whaler has invited all of the WhalerCentral members to participate in their party from 4PM to 6PM on Friday the 15th. Boston Whaler will be serving their new drink called the "Harpoon" and hors d'oeuvres will also be available. This event is FREE for WhalerCentral members. Tickets for the party will be distributed for the people that sign up. Details and more information on how to sign up will be coming soon. Keep an eye on this thread.

After that my wife and I are heading to Key Largo for a week.
Anyone in the keys that would like to get together for lunch? or?

I'm always interested in meeting members and seeing their Whalers so let me know if you are interested.
Would also pay for gas if anyone wants to show us around the area.

Joe, i will take a hard look at heading that way to hook up with you and any other Whaler Members that make it there. I'm pretty sure its doable, and actually did the Miami boat show with my brothers some years ago. Dang, they had some great deals on Merc's i.e. buy one get one free at the end of the show! Let me look into flights etc and i'llget back to you. Pfft

Joe, got the info via e-mail from the Boston Whaler Owners Club <bostonwhalerownersclub@whaler.com> site. As it stands now, i have a business trip the Savannah GA the same week, and plan on either driving, or grabbing a hop flight down to meet up with you that friday. How many days will you be there? and is the number i have called you at, your cell phone or home phone. Time is short and if my first trip goes through, want to follow up with a trip to meet up with you before i return to TX. Pfft

duf,
I will be arriving in Miami late Thursday night.
Depending on when I can get myself vertical the next morning, I will be at the Miami Boat Show all day and will be attending the Boston Whaler party from 4-6 PM....

I will be leaving for the Keys saturday at checkout time so the best chance to meet up will of course be on Friday at the boat show.

I believe Boston Whaler will be sending you tickets for the show and party now that you have signed up.

Look forward to seeing you and anyone else that is going to attend.

rc,

I realize it's a short window but that's just the way this trip is working out for my wife and myself.

I am really looking forward to meeting each and every one of you that are able to make it.
I am also looking forward to having a "Harpoon" drink especially concocted by Boston Whaler.

I plan on being there all day Friday and heading to the Whaler event on Friday night (got my tickets today). Saturday I will be at the show till around 3-4ish when I need to head back to Fort Lauderdale to catch a flight home.

Joe, not looking good for making the trip and hooking up with you, Jeff, and possibly Bob. Have company here (business) so had to cancel my trip to Savannah Ga and am not sure what time they will actually depart. I have my Boston Whaler tickets so am prepped and ready to launch if i can depart and get there by noon or so friday to meet with you and Jeff for the Whaler Party that evening. Flights are no problem as i have tons of FF miles from all my business traveling. So, if they get gone, and i can grab a flight i will even if its a red eye late thurs night!

While I can't be there, I do have a request.

Please take LOTS of photos. Boats, engines, gear, WC members and one or two of Joe.

Have fun.
