IMPORTANT – HOW TO REGISTER:
- Register on the TMCA website, beginning on 7/18/25
- Once Steve has all the data from registrations, he will assign all slips.
- He will provide boat names & slip numbers to Moody.
After he has communicated all registrants’ info to Moody, Steve will email all registrants.
- Then, you must call Moody with your credit card details. (Negotiated rate $70 per night) However, please do not call Moody until Steve advises you to do so.
The Moody concierge works very hard providing us with unlimited ice and rides to/from the lobby during the weekend, so we would encourage each boat to contribute $20 per boat, as a tip for this service. (cash will be collected there).
Don’t wait too long to sign-up for this cruise because we will be out of the country for two weeks prior to this cruise and have limited ability to communicate.
