JUNE 17th thru 20th

Please join Chase the Clouds  for a long weekend of cruising and socializing with final destination of Fisherman’s Village in Punta Gorda. There is pool and A/C at the end of the long cruise day! The Marina cost is $2.50 per foot dockage, and daily electric fee of $2.50 to $5 depending on amps needed ~ a great rate! All services are available for boaters with their very personable staff.  Cruise working channel is “72” and “Chase the Clouds” monitors “16” at all times.   [Please hail us on “16”, then we’ll switch to working channel 72].

Thurs. 17th ~ Anchor at Pelican Bay  w/ “Happy Hour” on Chase the Clouds or at “Dog Beach”  around 1700 hrs. (weather will dictate).   Dingy over to Caya Costa beach for a stroll at sunset.

 Fri. 18th ~ Lift Anchor 0830 hrs &  “meander” to Fisherman’s Village Marina on the south shore of Punta Gorda via Charlotte Harbour for early afternoon arrival.  This is a 4-5 hour trip so relax and enjoy the “sail”.  Once everyone is docked let’s meet at the pool (weather permitting) to cool down.  Cocktails & Pot Luck dinner at Marina Gathering room that evening.  Be thinking of “what you’ve missed this past year” to share with group.  After dinner, stroll through Fisherman’s Village Mall to enjoy the band(s) or a short walk along the riverfront to Gilchrest Park  for a concert in the park if there’s one scheduled at sunset. 

Sat. 19th ~ Free day for Mall, lunch at the Village or historic Punta Gorda  (bikes available at the Marina).  Gather at the pool for cocktails (weather permitting) and grill out (both gas and charcoal grills available).  Bring a salad/ desert to share along with your favorite grill item. 

Sun. 20th ~ Some may stay or, some may leave. Again, the weather will dictate. Some may meander back to Pelican Bay anchorage for the night OR to their home slips.  At this point Chase is planning to be out thru Monday.
