Ok ya'll,

I'll try this one more time! Up for auction is my 20" X 40" professionally laminated, high resolution(zoom in with magnifying glass for awesome detail) map of area 3A South in the Everglades. It has never been framed or mounted, (does have one crease which shouldn't be visible when mounted). Has camps with gps numbers from Holiday Park to Duck Camp.

Mood, can you help a fella with an image again?

Auction to end this Sunday @ 8 PM.

I'll pay the shipping in the US!

Pictured below is a miniature version of the map. Basket's right.... the resolution is so fine on this one that you can take a magnifying glass and see subtle details like narrow trails and the shapes of the buildings in the camps.

This is the map (or one like it) that was on display at the Southern Airboat booth at the 2006 Broward Airboat show. I had only 5 made. But soon I'll have more available (with minor changes) - This one, exactly as it is, will never be printed again.

This map is available NOWHERE ELSE but here!!!

It's fitting that this map be auctioned off to help Pete out of his jam... This is the area he rides, his house is in Davie, just off the map to the right. Pete has been riding this area for 50+ years, and no doubt helped blaze some of these trails.

That is Alligator alley at the top, and US27 on the right. It goes west and south a little past Duck Camp (in the lower left corner).

The change in coloration is unavoidable because it's a large area and was taken in several passes from an airplane on different dates. This is true to life color, and seasonal changes affect the colors of the vegitation.

This is not really practical to be taken on the boat, (it's big) but is sure to look GREAT hanging on the wall as a poster, or if you got it framed this is high enough quality to hang in even the nicest of homes or offices.

Good luck and CONGRATS to the highest bidder!!!

Airboatcapn2,

Thanks for stepping up to the plate again even after the "computer gremlins" tried to hit you with the ball :wink:

This map truly is awesome!

Basketcase
 
Hey ya'll,

Gotta bump this one back to the top! Airboatcapn2 has it at 75 so far :clock:
Little more than 3 days left. Really awesome map and a good cause for a really cool guy.

Basketcase
 
Hey Basket it wass okay hiding it at the bottom, these guys have no idea how awesome these maps are, and how high they sell for.
 
Got that right Faron.
I wish I could go for it, but I can't swing it right now.

Watch out, some might be waiting till the end, but it is for Pete after all.
 
And the winner is....

Cowboy, forgot to tell you to read the fine print....

That'll be $200 in handling charges :shock:

I'll get it out in the next day or two if that's ok?

Basketcase
 
Congrats Cowboy!!! I'm glad you got that one. You helped create it.

Faron, check you PM messages. I may be able to get you one too.

Thanks for puttin' that auction out there Basket.

A couple of days will be just fine.
Take your time.

Yeah Mood, I'll be proud to have it, although I really did it for Pete!

I'll send you a Money Order Dakota. Make it out to you?
