Ha, that's one of the advantages of being a NATO soldier... I never had to wait in line anywhere when I went to the States... All I had to show was my military ID.
Got a few "thank you for your service sir" instead

Americans respect their service men, unlike here in Belgium, where nobody cares for the army (due to left wing mentality and government ).

Man, I whished I could have been there, but alas, other priorities stood in the way this year

I'm heading up to Tavares on Friday from Orlando. I'm going solo, so there's plenty of room for anyone who needs it.

I think most of us will be at Tavares on Friday for the Sunnyland show. Head down that way and I'm sure someone will have a seat for you.

They're pretty reasonable rates....Usually a handshake, a cold beer or boat drink made with our friend Capt. Morgan seals the deal but I think that may be too rich for some. Gary S has driven thru several times and stayed elsewhere but the Jbear usually stops even if it's just for lunch    

Might even be a full Inn as a Hurricane might be settling in for the night too!

Less than a week! New tires on the trailer, repacked bearings, ready to go!! Not sure if I can afford the cost of the Morfoot Inn or not. He may have me sleeping in the car.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing all of these CC boats. I think I will see in one weekend more CC's than I have in my lifetime.

Billy, I will give y'all a shout when I hit Taveres to check in for the show.

Safe travels everyone.

I would bet weather will be pretty good , its almost into summer pattern then and no cold fronts blowing through to rain for more than a day at worst it could be one day iffy I think.

Shows rain for next Monday/Tuesday which means it should be nice by later in the week. What forecasting model do you have that shows past 7 days out???

Scott,
We have a factory tour setup for wednesday morning at 10AM (tentatively)already with The Godfather. Myself, JBear and Quinner are picking up Kapla from the airport at 9AM and heading to the tour right from there. That is subject to change though depending on Kap's flight status. Guess we're kinda at the mercy of the airlines at this point.

You're welcome to join in on the tour if you'd like.[/QUOTE]

Guys just a side note if on a direct flight into Orlando it can take 2 ½ hours at passport control for non US passport holders as it has high volume for the parks...have stood in line many times.
Lets have a go

The knowledge might make me feel slightly better at the pump.

Dave, let's do an off topic if we want to rehash fuel, vehicles, other stuff again. This thread belongs to SJRR. I apologize for my off topic comments.

Do you know of or can find out from the ACBS man where non ethanol gas can be bought in the Tavares area prior to launching the boat? I would guess many people attending would like to know the answer tothis question. Thanks!



It's funny how this one question has spurred over a page of posts about fuel on this thread!!!! I have feel like I have gotten an education of fuel.

I wish they never invented E85. They give all the corn farmers all this govenrment money for corn and the stuff sucks. Then pass it off to the world as green gas, yea its green gas alright the kind that takes the green out of your pocket. E85 will give your worse gas mileage thats for sure doesnt matter if your tune up is off or not.
