Anybody besides me interested in attending one?

I also am in South Florida 2-3 times a year for my shark and wreck diving addiction (no cure or rehab, just enabling). *grins* Is the West Palm Beach area suitable for you Juiie? (My map software shows it is about 110 miles from your town, or a little over 90 minutes via I95). Our last Florida Happy Hour was 2013 at the Cheesecake factory located at 11800 Lake Victoria Gardens, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410 BUT this is just for reference or suggestion.If you have a place in mind just post it here to  help people decide if it is within their acceptable range for driving in. (Our experience proves this is a most UNpredictable quality, those you think are just down the road may be preoccupied, then guys like myself will drive from the panhandle to combine a Happy Hour event with personal diving plans.) :Let us know! :diver:

While I no longer live in Florida, I would gladly attend a Happy Hour at the Lorelei Cabana Bar in Islamorada if people wanted to. It has the best sunsets in the keys and the Key Lantern motel/Blue Fin Inn (at $65-80 per night) has the best rates in the keys. Maybe not the best divng in Florida, but I miss the Eagle & Spiegel Grove wrecks.

I dive out of Palm Beach quite a bit.  Governors Riverwalk is my favorite dive there.  I could make it there for a happy hour, its only a 2 hour drive from Melbourne.

Nope, never really got wind in the sails for some reason, Mark. :unhappy: It's an open invitation, any other locals who wish to recover the fumble and charge for the End Zone are encouraged to step up! :cool2:

 

I've actually been in WPB the last three days with Zach aka divzac to catch the new Wreck Corridor addition MV Ana Ceilia drop. We then got a dive on her a couple of hours later. Vid clips on my FB page. How've you been buddy?

Things are going well.  I moved to Ft. Lauderdale to be with my wife and haven't dived since I moved here (I know, I know ...).  I'm looking to get back into diving and getting active on SD.com.  I have a travel job and am out Mon - Thurs when traveling.  I'm happy to help coordinate south Florida happy hours and am looking to reincarnate the Florida dive of the month (especially if it gets me diving once a month!).

I travel Mon - Thurs so how's about Aug 26 or 27?  Maybe in Boca - mid-point between WPB and Ft. Lauderdale?

 

I have found some candidate venues:

Two Georges, Boynton Beach

Deck 84, Delray Beach

Two Georges, Deerfield Beach

 

I've been to Two Georges in Boynton but not the others.
