DanBlack Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 The general consensus was "we want to go on another boat trip", so the next one will be July 15. The price will be the same, 2000Bt. P/P. This will barely cover fuel and expenses, it is not making me rich, too bad. Again the best part will be that Gerd is offering lunch. Lamb stew. My mouth waters every time I say that. We have 6 confirmed now, and room for about 8-10 more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIZLA+ Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Tell me how much is the rental on a boat like this for the day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khall64au Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 It's not spamming, it's a Phuket forum social event! Are those your teeth Rizla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Don't know why, but this forum seems to attract a high percentage of trouble makers. This is clearly a social event and the charge per head is almost cost price (if only 10 people) and does not come near the commercial price of a private day charter. If more people, then Dan is welcome to the extra money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still a few weeks off, but at this point it looks like not many people want to come to your Birthday Party. Oh well more cake for us.

ade100 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I am a newcomer to Phuket and to the forum but a boat trip and the chance to meet a few new folk certainly sounds tempting. Could someone let me have a few details such as: is it still happening, what time do you intend to set off and arrive back and more importantly dress code. Do I wear my swashbuckling pirate outfit with frilly shirt and parrot on shoulder or do I go for the straw boater and stripey blazer :-) Thanks Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBlack Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hi there Adrian, let me be the first to welcome you aboard. I am sure you will have a great day, and it is a great way to meet new local people. We will be leaving from Laem Hin Pier. I assume you don't know where that is, so if you are driving I will post instructions, or what might be better is, let us know where you are and maybe you can hook up with somebody else, and catch a ride. The day seemed to go so fast last time. I think we should meet at the pier no later than 0900. As the tides are low in the afternoon we will not be coming back until about 1900. Of course you are welcome to hang out as long as you want. We had some late night hanger's on'ers last time. As for dress code, I kind of like the pirate outfit idea myself, otherwise just a pair of shorts is what most people end up in. Don't forget to bring you're swim suit though. Check out "pictures of our boat trip" and "who is interested in a one day boat trip" from previous posts by Gerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade100 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Thanks, it sounds great! I have a motor scooter and a girlfriend who knows where Laem Hin Pier is, who incidentally would like to come too. I think I saw something about Lamb Stew. As I am vegetarian we will probably along some food too if anyone would like to sample it. So count us both in...Now where did I put that frilly shirt...

justaskdan Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I'm 90% confirmed for me and my son and I am out pitching the idea to my friends...... more later.....

Can someone post the link to the past trip photos and tell me where the Pier is? I live in SamKong, Phuket Town. From Samkong, cross over to the road going out from town to the airport, pass SuperCheap, and about 1 km further on, just as you crest the brow of the hill, take the small road on the right. Well signposted for the Laem Hin seafood resturant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBlack Posted July 11, 2007 Author Share Posted July 11, 2007 Well I have been monitoring the weather pretty closely the last few days, and I hate to do it, but as a conscientious captain, I am going to postpone our boat trip until Sun. July 29. I am involved in Phuket Race Week next week. Actually the real reason for canceling is no one will come now that Gerd is not showing up with his lamb stew. Please let me know if you are interested in this new date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
