| Crossing Lake Okeechobee (FL)
Hi Everyone - We're picking up our first sailboat from Naples over thanksgiving weekend and need to bring her home to Ft Lauderdale. It's a Catalina 30 and it sounds like the Lake Okeechobee route is the best way for us to go since we're inexperienced. Can you recommend any resources online that will tell me about route planning? Are we okay with a 46" draft and 50' mast? Can we drop anchor overnight anywhere along the St Johns River? Is that allowed? How much time should we allow for the trip? Thanks in advance for any advice!!
