I'm one of the organizers and will have someone check on the hotel tomorrow. Seems early to be filled already considering we only have about 75-80 of 110 spots filled. There is another hotel next to the Renaissance that may have rooms...I think it's a Holiday Inn (Portsmouth waterfront).

Make sure you tell them it's for the RPBA (Richmond Powerboat Association)

I did mention the RPBA and they said there was no group rate. I didn't care about that was just looking for a group of rooms that had been alloted, she said they were booked full. All the hotel sites (expedia, blah blah blah) say the same

I assume you found it at Sunset up inside Hampton (across the river from the final party/hotel) and it should still be available this year. I would have met you guys over there but my boat only made it 1/2 way down last summer. At least I was able to park it and hitch a ride for the rest of the event.

I just talked to the couple that is in charge of the hotel and they will call tomorrow. Try again and mention the full name..."Richmond Powerboat Association". They use our full name and don't seem to recognize the initials for some reason.

Yes we found it and had a nice little ride over there last year. I hate we did not get a chance to meet up with you but we will be there again this year and will probably be in my boat, so look me up.
