One of these four is probably the one you're looking for. If not, try other search terms you remember from the post you read.

There is only 1 cross over( other than the 7 mile bridge ) on Marathon and that is at the Vaca Cut next ot Capt. Hook's dive/bait shop. This is at the 53 MM on Hwy 1.
This is a low over head bridge and will not clear a sail boat vertically.

The only way "around" Marathon on a sail boat is via the 7 Mile Bridge.
