Join us for a rafting or flotilla event. As a guideline, one weekend of each month is dedicated to an on-water overnight raft-up. The location of this event changes monthly, and can be RSVP'd on the Facebook page, via email, or at the Meet & Greet. We also have impromptu raft-ups that are usually posted on the Facebook Page.

Monthly Meet & Greet
Noon to 4pm the first Sunday of each month
Held at the Residence Inn Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal Il Lugano on the Intracoastal at Galt Ocean Mile the first Sunday of each month. Suites will also be available to BWB members at a discounted rate for anyone visiting or wanting a staycation.
This property is located in a no wake zone just north of the Oakland Park Blvd bascule bridge. It has five individual finger piers for dockage (northernmost 5), so dockage will be reserved for Boys With Boats members on a first come first served basis. Since the docks are individual, there won’t be rafting, or the risk of rogue wakes causing damage, and power poles may be available for shore power. It’s is recommended you bring at minimum 4 dock lines.
For those arriving by car, you have the option to valet for $20, but there is plenty of metered parking near the entrance.
Our gracious hosts have agreed to providing bar service and menu items at happy hour prices to those in BWB apparel. Since the restaurant and bar aren’t open for daily lunch service it will truly be an event solely for our membership. We will also have free use of the heated pool, cabanas, and hot tub. Just bring your own towel and swimsuit. Changing can be done in the poolside restrooms.
