After the Morgan Black

Postby yachtie » Wed Mar 04, 2009 10:05 pm

Hi all

After the October event myself and Brian Hogg plan on doing a little side trip down to Florida and seek some advice from you locals please re rental vehicles.

Planning needs to be undertaken now as it is only 6 months away - not long in reality.

As we need to rent an SUV or similar so we can lug the boats along with us, can we please get some pointers re vehicle rentals and the myriad of extras the websites all have like Loss Damage Waivers, Personal Protection, Personal Liabilty insurances etc etc. Basically what is needed to be sure in the US?

The plan is we rent from Charleston on 11 Oct and dump at Orlando Airport 16 Oct as that is where flights back are booked from already.

Thanks for any advice/pointers we can get.

Often your credit card and/or car insurance at home cover much of those bothersome add-ons.Check your AX card.

Chris,

I see you will depart from Orlando but if anyone is coming and going from Charleston and would like some storage space for a few days, I have a warehouse and a few cargo vans. Also, if anyone needs boats picked up from anywhere, let me know.

Transport to Orlando after the event.

Hi all - only 9 weeks to go - ya hoo can't wait.

Help query please. Peter Morris from Australia departs from Orlando on Monday 12 October and needs to be at he airport there by 1600hrs that day. Is there any one travelling south that can help with transport for him and his boat[?]

Travel to the event is covered - just the return is sticky at this point.

Cheers

Chris:

Getting Peter to Orlando should not be a problem. Mary Ellen and I will be heading home to Naples FL on Sunday Oct. 11 and would be glad to drive Peter, his boat and whatever else to Orlando.
