Message from Pete Karas regarding the Saint James City Boat Christmas boat parade.  Our community will light up for the holidays once again - how wonderful is that!!! Please save the date of December 9. 2023 for annual St. James City Christmas Boat Parade.  Please let me know if you can participate this year.  I'm sure many of your boats were impacted in some way by hurricane Ian.

Details to follow

All of our members are cordially invited to join this year’s New Year’s Eve blast aboard Due South (a/k/a the Hynds’ boat). Due South provides plenty of room for all. As in past years, we’ll be anchored in the anchorage area just off Fishermens Village Punta Gorda. That anchorage is well marked on charts and lies just to the East of the Fishermens Village approach markers and West of Peace River Light 4. We anticipate Due South will be in position by about 6PM and communications will be on Channel 68. Once you’re anchored, transportation over to Due South will be by dinghy.If you don’t have a dinghy, plenty of others will be running and available. If you would like to attend, but are not able (or choose not to) spend the night on your anchor, slips and/or rooms may be available in the Fishermens Village Marina. Please contact Pat […]
