John:

I am bringing the boat to Naples by Truck on Saturday morning and plan on being on the water by 9:15. I hope that's early enough.

I left you a message earlier today. I will be putting in and taking out in Naples so I don't "need" fuel. Since I started this fuel fiasco, if you need me to take some fuel "for the team" I will be happy to.

Tom

Hey Tom,

Got your message last night. When you called I was face down in the bilge arduously taking off the nuts to the engine mounts. I will call you later this morning. I already called Nate and informed him about the fuel. As far as being in the water at 9:15 that should work but it will be tight. There are 4 other
boats leaving from the same place so look for them.

To all that have offered, I should know by the end of today whether I will need to take anyone up ont it. Thanks again
John

Motor is back in the boat Roger will be putting the drive back on in the morning. So at this point everything is starting to look good for the Specialized crew(knock on wood). Will take her out for a spin tommorow afternoon to make sure. Thank you all for the support.

Since John is probably busy checking his boat out I will answer for him. I would think we will make the lunch stop by 12 - 12:15 ish. That will allow for some catch up time for the back of the pack and also if someone's boat goes down we will stop for a few minutes while the problem is diagnosed.
Look forward to seeing you and Joe at the Sanibel Bridge. Water looks good for the cats.

Not trying to be doom and gloom but.........weather forecast is getting worse.......

Per NOAA: Saturday: Periods of showers and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly before 11am. High near 83. North northwest wind between 3 and 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.

Will be checking radar in the A.M.
