Hello T-326!
I just wanted to let everyone know that I was talking with my friend at Sea Base, and was told we could have the 4 treks we requested, on the dates we requested.
So we effectively “won” the Sea Base Lottery!
Initial estimates are as follows (initial since we may do things a little differently, but this is the plan for now):
- Crews will leave DFW very early on Sunday March 13, 2011 for Miami International Airport (MIA)
- We will then get transportation to Sea Base on Islamorada , FL , checking in by 2 pm.
- We will do Swim Checks and get snorkeling gear issued, and load the boats with supplies.
- It is not clear yet if we set sail into the sunset, or wait until sunrise.
- We do our Coral Reef Sailing Treks…
- Arriving back at Sea Base on Friday 18 March, where we have the ending Luau, spend the night, and leave Sea Base on Saturday 19 March
- Getting transportation to MIA, with maybe a stop at the Everglades , before flying back to DFW, tentatively arriving sometime around 6 pm, Saturday 19 March 2011
The $100. deposits will be due within 30 days, and I will be in touch as this firms up.
There will be many more emails as we progress in the future, and as the crews are defined.
Thank you….
YIS,
