Moderator Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 For the First-Timers to Breezy Palms.. The channel out of the basin is not deep. There is a rock bottom just outside the two PVC markers. The marked-up photo shows the dotted lineto take in and out.. The yellow zone is shallow and hard bottom. The red X's are rock piles that are visible at mid tide and higher. There were only two PVC markers at last visit.. One was laying down. Speak to anybody about the channel before you zoom out.. The tides will be higher than usual during the Tournament. The bonefish boats and step hulls have plenty of water. The yellow area is 2 feet deep at low water, and is hard bottom . The bigger boats need to be careful here; at low tides.. trim up and idle well outside of the pipes. If you have questions, find Woodsie or one of the regulars and ask. Let's have a bunch of fun this year !! Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motojon76 Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 I’m in for 2 and my first saltwater tourney ever. We’re staying a couple blocks up since I had no idea this was so popular. At least we got a boat slip with our room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shindig Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 We are staying at Kon Tiki, just a bit north of Breezy Palms on the Gulf side. We stayed there last year, several participants in the tournament stayed there. Boat ramp and dockage. Good alternative if your still looking for a room and slip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finbully Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Anyone know if there will be an HPXS at the tournament? I’m thinking of adding to my fleet and that is one I’m considering. I’ll be down 09/21 - 29. I’d trade time on my Pathfinder 2500 for a ride on an HPXS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JnamJnam Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I will be running my HPX-S again this year. Staying across the road at Kon Tiki if you want a test ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
