Feb 15, 2008 | 6:46 pmThe best thing this club had was Avy Gonzalez. Other wise a very lame place, full of "potalitas" and coke whores. A 7 on on the scale, and only cause Avy was there.

Aug 26, 2006 | 2:26 amBanana Boat bared the perfect name for it's location and main client base, a highly populated Cuban area! lol
Please no one get offended,I am Cuban myself and one must speak the truth,El Bote (the boat) was a favorite amongst Cubans.
Great times had there and the babes? OMG!

I think someone (I think Avy Gonzalez) had a crystal ball and used to have top acts before any other club every week. Place used to get so packed, it would get really hot, like a sauna! But it didn't matter, by far the best music, DJ (Avy) and club in Kendall. Weds, Fridays, and Saturdays was always a blast. After Avy left, Club went down hill and eventually closed, to bad...Owners didn't know what they where doing. Lots of great memories and beautiful women....One of the great clubs....
