Very deep and very fast.This will be the largest array of hardware seen on the east coast. In between the parties with 12 bands scheduled there will be a fun run and a poker run.

any size boat is going to be fun. If you have a smaller/slower boat you start behind the big guns anyway, and have a great time. Food/parties are great if you have a 10' rowboat!:rock

You will see Sweet 16 Donzis making this run. The river is 3 miles wide and you have all day to make the stops and have lunch. I might even do the run in my 23 ft. deck boat. From the start of the run to the lunch at 33 mph i can make it in one hour.

The Shands Bridge in Green Cove Springs was where I did it in 07. It's a narrow mofo and signs say no pedestrians.

Last year Bill got me a fire chief escort for the Buckman Bridge- you wouldn't make it ten minutes there without one. Three different state troopers stopped to ask if they could help us.

Yeah, I'm regretting not putting this one on the schedule. Gotta make some sacrifices with the wife back in school though. :banghead It'll be on when she gets out.

Now that you're popping your salt cherry, you need to come to Biloxi with us next weekend.
