Poker Run Tour Brings Floridians North

The publisher Sarasota Florida, a Mecca and favourite gathering place for high performance boaters, jump started the 2007 Poker Run Tour in late March, as more than 100 boaters brought the best of the best to challenge the waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Just a few weeks later, the Fort Myers Poker Run ignited a frenzy of excitement when we produced one of the best events ever held in the area - every poker runner enjoyed deluxe accommodations with a waterfront view, and the opportunity to run with some of the most spectacular boats on the water.

As the heat of summer builds, the action moves north, where more and more southern boaters are bringing their boats to enjoy the cool fresh waters, and participate in a series of upscale and exclusive Poker Run events.

On the weekend of July 27-28, the Mohegan Sun Casino Resort will be the venue for our second annual Connecticut/ Long Island Poker Run. Ocean Performance has once again opened their facilities to the Poker Runners, beginning with a Friday afternoon reception, and continuing throughout the weekend with secure trailer parking facilities. The Friday evening reception will bring Poker Runners to the Mohegan Sun Resort, where more than 100 restaurants and boutiques provide virtually unlimited entertainment possibilities, in addition to the attraction of the Casino, and top name entertainment.

The Connecticut/Long Island Poker Run will be an ideal opportunity to see the very latest developments in the performance marine industry, with Mercury Racing on hand, as well as factory teams from Cigarette, OuterLimits, Donzi, Contender, Fountain, Concept, Sonic, Hustler, and more...

Just a few weeks later, on the weekend of August 10-12, the annual 1000 Islands Poker Run returns to picturesque Kingston, Ontario. At press time, more than 80 boats had registered - don't miss this opportunity to run in the #1 Poker Run event in North America - it's the ideal conclusion to a voyage of discovery, covering some of the most spectacular scenic waterways in North America.

For details on the 2007 Poker Run Tour, and on-line registration for these events, please visit the website at www.pokerrunsamerica.com - it's your portal to a whole new world of performance boating adventures!
