That's my b-day weekend and I'm either going to have a giant ass party for all my friends at the river... Or I'm gonna be on a cruise ship sipping pacifico's.. (haven't decided yet)

That all said, I need someone to cover this event for RDP. It's a paying gig!! Constant840? Wiseone? ??

four to five paragraph article. with 15-20 photos - 150.00- 250.00. (depends on pics and or if the article is decent) send extra photos via Dropbox or other service and I upload them..

Not too interested in stats of events.. more the experience and what it was like to be there.. read last four or five articles on front page for examples. :)

Any boats that are different and cool that we can use as feature boats a two - four paragraph deal with 10-15 photos 50.00 each..

of course I will also send a gift pack of Rdp shirts and hats / koozies etc..

That more than covers my AvGas. Let me see what I can make happen.

Sorry about that! I think I'm used to seeing your pops on fB or something. My bad!

Anyway, looking forward to seeing you run that gorgeous boat! 🖒

Where are the closest accommodations?
Where is a good spot to launch?

Fishers Landing is the best place to launch there's gas, a store and restaurant/bar there
The Microtel off Fortuna Road in Yuma and some other hotels is about a 25 minute drive from fishers landing. I know there's also some rentals in Martinez Lake you could probably look on their Facebook page to get a contact for them

I'm thinking of checking this out, where does everyone gather?

Recommendations on where to stay... Campgrounds?

Thank you

Gathering spot is a few miles north of Fisher's on the big sandbar in the no ski zone. North of the entrance to Ferguson Lake and south of Monkey Island.
