On Thursday evening the Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization‘s (SEMPO) New York working group went on a 3-hour-long boat ride (AKA booze cruise) around the island of Manhattan. The event featured an open bar, dining, and dancing to 90′s classics like Rump Shaker. The Blue Fountain Media team, naturally drawn by the idea of free drinks and talk of search engines, turned out in droves. The event was graciously sponsored by Clickable, Enquisite, and the ladies from Century Interactive who came all the way from Dallas, Texas to attend.

Here are 2 photos of the event, taken from my iPhone:
