The ocean may have come off our streets, but so many people and places in Tampa Bay are still figuratively underwater trying to recover from the effects of back-to-back hurricanes.

St. Pete Beach restaurant The Helm is one such locale, and remains closed.

To help raise money for the restaurant and others in the area, Tampa Bay Watch hosts a ‘70s-themed party its calling “The Love Boat Gala.” Live music, lip sync contests, stories from restaurant owners, and, of course, tasting stations featuring dishes available across St. Pete Beach.

Tickets for The Love Boat Gala happening Friday, Nov. 15 at Tampa Bay Watch in Tierra Verde are still available for $125.
