    Model S comes to the Sarasota Yacht Club

    As a Florida reservation holder, I received the following email from Tesla Florida:

    Private Cocktail Reception for Reservation Holders and Owners.

    The Beta version is a 90% production intent prototype of Model S. Guests will be able to sit in the vehicle while viewing a brief demonstration of the 17" touchscreen.

    Cocktail Reception:
    Saturday, April 28th
    6pm - 8pm

    Please RSVP to attend.

    Public Viewing Hours:
    April 28th - April 29th
    10am - 6pm

    Sarasota Yacht Club
    1100 John Ringling Blvd
    Sarasota, FL 34236

    We were there Aug. 20, 2011, sat in the car and played with the touch screen, but no cocktail party, so this is progrss.

    Hi Hubertz,

    Yes, my wife and I were there on August 20th, and after seeing the car I immediately gave them my deposit. My avatar photo was taken there.

    A number of our club members will be meeting on April 28th at the Yacht Club. We would enjoy meeting you if your plans permit.

    There was a reception last August, the Friday night before the event and Roadster owners were invited. It would have been tough for Tesla to invite you if you only placed your reservation the next day.....

    Welcome to the forum.

    I'm looking forward to a decent turnout on Saturday.

    Will you be bringing your guests?

    Icon3 Yacht Club event. Hmmm...

    Does this mean that we might get a shore power adapter as an option? That would be awesome!

    I'm heading down from Atlanta and bringing a few guests who live in Sarasota. It will be their first time seeing a Tesla up close and I trust we'll have new fans and at least 1 potential buyer.
