Good morning Everyone

It's not often that we say "Another lousy day" but that is what we have today. Another day of gusty winds and squalls from the South. The good news is tomorrow it will be gorgeous again.

I posted lots of new pics on the Timeline section of the website this morning. Try this link http://www.snookbightmarina.com/construction_timeline.asp

The furniture arrived last week for the Promenade and the Ship Store is now open so here are a few pics.

The Upstairs area is also finished now and Larry and Lorie are now in their offices and the Employee Break Room is up and running. Above is a pic of the Locker Room in the Men's Room. Below are some more pics from upstairs.

This week we'll put the last layer of cool crete on the pool deck. The ClubRoom will get the final paint and wallpaper and the furniture for it will arrive. The BBQs are here now and all is going to be ready for the Members and guests by Friday. We are hoping to receive our final permits from Lee County Utilities by Friday and then it's fully open for business.

Progress on the restaurant is good. You can view the menu at www.bayfrontbistro.com.

The final design features for the bar area are complete and the bids are coming in for the contractors. We appointed Owens Ames Kimball as General Contractors and they are moving at breakneck speed to make a January 10th opening date.

Lastly, it's party time and we'll be hosting a two day open house on the 8th and 9th of November. Invitations are going in the mail tomorrow. If you would like to come along please call Jill or Kim at 239-765-4371 to receive an invitation.

Gotta go now. Lots to do today.

Happy boating!
