This trip has been changed to September 15-17th, 2006.
Hi folks, once again we've gotten some people wanting to know if there is enough interest in a limited load 52 hour tuna trip on the Big E this fall.

The TFF has booked the Big E in late October, and some of the folks that went on the Halloween '05 Big E trip are on that trip.

However, others have asked us to see if enough folks are still out there wanting to do another 52 hour private charter.

We tried this a few months ago and got a few replies, but interest seems to high now.

We know the Big E is available September 29th-October 1st, (a quarter moon), and as always we would organize the trip to the desire of the groups wishes regarding the number going and so forth.

The charter cost is $20,000 for up to 40 people, and we are organizing the trip in late October for about $14 a person.

Based on 30 people going at $20,000 plus our fee the cost per person would be $680.

For 35 people the total cost would be $580 per person.

For 38 people (that is the number going on the 2006 late October trip) the total cost would be $540 per person.

We propose to post this on the three major Texas fishing boards, plus all other Texas fishing boards. If there is enough interest we'd collect at least $350 per person for the $10,000 deposit.

We will refer to this trip as the Combined Texas Fishing Board Charter, or the CTFB 06 Charter
It will be a first post up, and first pay deal, with Paypal being available, however that will add Paypal's fee's.

We'll update the list for those that post up as in on the trip and we'll see how it goes.

If we get 30-35 interested there can be no lagging on paying the deposits as Captain Elliot's policy is to pay the deposit within a few weeks.

If there are any questions feel free to contact us at too@outdoorstexas.com or by calling us at (210)215-3877

There has been two removed and a couple added with 2 more possible.
As far as this making, it depends on the number that join, 30-40 is need to make the trip cost effective.
However, from what we've heard the fall open 52 hour trips are about booked completely and the September weekend proposed is the only open weekend with no scheduled trip at all. At least that was the word when we last talked to Captain Elliott's. There was some open 52 hour spots in November and Decmeber if recalled correctly.

Add one more spot for me, have a buddy that wants to go.
