Anyone going to Ft. Desoto?
I was thinking of going this year, haven't been before. Is it worthwhile?

We usually go out to Egmont Key on Sundays so I'm thinking I will check it out. I've never been before either, but I'm curious if they will have any type of entertainment.

Guess I'll go ahead and register- if the weather's decent I guess it's a good excuse to run down there and burn some fuel.

From the pictures of last years Aquapalooza it looks like everyone just anchors off the beach on the gulf side just north of the channel.

Unfortunately I didn't get to take any pics, I was busy playing with my 15 month old or blending up some frozen rum runners. It was a good turn out though with every type of boat you could imagine. I was anchored near a new 350 DA. That's the first time I saw this model. Nice boat!
