i agree with terryspf and a couple of others, the Islands don't cut it for me.

..i have been to PIB 18 of last 22 yrs for the ILYRA 'bay week' sailboat regatta for several days each time, and returned for weekend parties other times. no place for cars and not a venue of interest to me for a cobra gathering. in fact, when we have had a 'racer chaser' van on the island during the regatta's we had to show proof of hotel reservations just to get the van on the ferry. always nice on PIB to have dinner at the Boardwalk, buy nautical nick nack stuff for the home at the Cargo Net, kick back at the Commodore hotel at night and have a brew or multiples thereof at the Beer Barrel...but for a cobra weekend, not for me...

now, for someone that wants to spend a couple of hours there on sunday before they return home. a great stop over for a few hours of a power tour...leave the car in port clinton at the docks and take the jet ferry across...ah, leave the car at the docks. well, that is something i would not do either, at least not my spf.

my guess is many of the northern ohio folks have been there too, been there done that...

opinions are like rear ends and butt orifices, every one has one..guess this one is mine. bill.
