Old Sparkey's Forum

Just to let you know...

Everything talked about on Old Sparkeys Forum is the opinion of the person posting that information and is to be used only as information or as a suggestion, to help you in the construction of your boat or to help increase your pleasures when out paddling and camping.

Boating - and all activities even remotely connected to it - are inherently risky. Building a boat adds to the risk, during both the building and use phases. If you decide that you can't take responsibility for what you do and whatever results afterwards, don't read anything on this forum, don't try any of these activities.

Everything read on Old Sparkeys Forum is only a suggestion, and it may or may not work. Users should always check with an expert before trying anything they learn from here or anywhere else. Our information is what we have learned from camping , paddling and even building boats and we are willing to share that information with you.

Needless to say... What we like you might not like , so the final action (decision) taken by you is your choice and yours only.

Anyone under (18?) should have a responsible adult supervise all activities.

New PD Racer Fleet in Florida

found: King Bay Boat Works

re-posted from Jeff

For Immediate Release

New PD Racer Fleet in Florida

Great news everyone, Florida now has a brand new PD Racer Fleet! The Kings Bay PD Racers

There are already plans to hold regular events around Florida and who knows, perhaps a try at hosting the 2011 World Event.

The PD Racer is very easy to build and easy to sail, making this is a great first boat for anyone who wants to get started and it is affordable.

We are excited to be a part of the PD Racer family and are looking forward to promoting such a great boat.

There is just something special about sailing a boat that you built yourself.

Florida Gulf Coast Small Craft Festival

@ The Florida Maritime Museum at Cortez

Florida Gulf Coast Small Craft Festival

is back for 2011

future notice

It's in our own Cortez fishing village home this year and there's no place like home! In fact the Bayside Banquet Hall which did the legendary fresh fish dinner for the "Great Ist" is doing us again and oh my what a way to be done food wise. Weather is scheduled to be more perfect, and the "races" will be even more confusing, if there's any way we can make them so.

Please put us on your calendar and start saving your gas money now. As with previous GFGCSCFs you can come and camp prior to the event as early as Wednesday April 13th as long as you have preregistered. A local motel list has been linked to the updated website for those who need more comforts. Please plan to bring musical instruments and voices if you are into that as well. We will also be doing Captain Paul's now legendary Friday night Cubano pot luck (chicken and dirty rice, are provided, you bring something too). And check out the link to the Crystal River Messabout which is to be a happening the very next weekend www.tsca.net/CRBB.
