Looking for Florida Charter Winter 24/25 events

[Nmuzia]

Looking to see if there is a charter available for a few events in Florida winter 24/25 series and Bacardi Cup. Possibly interested in purchase if available. Looking for something race ready or close to it. I can trailer it as needed also. Thanks! Nick Muzia [email protected]

Nick, where are you located?  Doubt you'll find many good charter options in Florida, but if you are willing to pick up a boat and deal with transport, etc., perhaps there are some owners who would be interested, although most Viper owners will want to know how much relevant sportboat experience you have and/or may want to sail on the boat with you to ensure no issues if they don't know you personally.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm located in East Central Florida (Stuart, FL). I'm likely not going to be able to drive out of state to bring one down and do the transport both ways, but if a boat were already headed to Florida, I could move it locally and possibly aid/arrange transport North after the events. I did have someone reach out about a boat that is coming down for the NA's in Sarasota and I'll be talking to them soon.

I sailed Vipers a few times in Annapolis, MD around 2011-2015 (mostly I was involved with V15's and other classes). I was on the board at SSA and tried to help facilitate the establishment of a fleet during that time but wasn't totally successful. My background was dinghy sailing through youth and college teams, various keelboats and my V15 while living in Annapolis 2009-2015. The past 2 years I've been sailing Melges 15's as their winter series was 15 minutes from my house. They just moved the event though. I've always had desire to get more into sport boats because of the speed and downwind sailing is more fun. I currently race a few GL52 events in the great lakes over the summer months also.

I'd be interested in Crewing for the NA's Dec 12-14th if anyone needs crew. I'm 5'9" and 170-175 lbs. but live 3 hours from Sarasota. very interested in a charter for the Bacardi Cup in Miami and possibly Winter Series #3 (available as crew also for winter series 3)

My email is [email protected] or cell 407-948-6141.

Thanks all!

I'm all good! I will be going the fleet for series #3 and Bacardi cup.
