Michael B., (sorry, don't know your screen name) The Port Hotel called me about your reservation there for the manatee weekend. They need you to call Theresa and give them your telephone #. Thanks-Suzie.
Also, anyone else intersted in the swim with the sea cows weekend, please e-mail me at
captsuzieholstead@yahoo.com and I'll reserve your spot. My # is 352-586-8068 if you wanna call with any questions. $22.50/person (when you get to the boat)for the spot on the boat. I'm assuming most people have a mask and snorkel, but if you need mask/snorkel you can rent them when you get here.
I reserved 8 rooms (w/ double beds) for "SCUBABOARD" at the Port Hotel and Marina(12/10 & 12/11)-$55/night, and they are on a 4pm hold. You have to call the Port Hotel, (352)795-3111 and talk to Theresa. Rooms are going quickly this time of year, so call ASAP.
No matter where you stay, We are gonna meet at a cuban restuarant called "Cravings on the Water" @ 7am. It is right on Kings Bay, next to the Best Western Hotel and Crackers Restuarant. The address is, 614 NW Highway 19 · Crystal River · Florida · 34428 Phone: 1-352-795-2027.
I'll be there at 6:30am to get coffee and to start signing people in. I have to show a really short video before we leave the dock, so lets all really try to be there by 7am. I don't want to over crowd boats, so please e-mail me and give me a reservation # ASAP so that I can make sure that I have enough boats so you guys are comfortable. Also, if let me know if anyone is gonna be intersted in afternoon boat rental or afternoon dives so that I can get an estimate for that too.
Looking forward to meeting you guys.
Capt.Suzie
