Hi everyone
This may seem silly but does anyone know of anyone who would bring 4 people from Florida to Turks and Caicos by boat? We are just looking for transportation there. We have a wedding we just don’t fly. Thanks,

How are you getting back?

We would be taking a boat back hopefully.....

Do you understand how long that trip would take by boat? Even going nonstop it could be a week or more. If you have to wait out bad weather it could be 2-3 weeks. Took me over a month last time I made that trip.

Whatcha bringing??

Are you looking to charter a boat or just grab two cabins on a SE boat?

Ya I do understand how long it would be. I was also looking into a seaplane. Anyone know anything about those? Anyone know anyone who does that?!?

Seaplanes fly.

I used to be terrified of flying, well, I probably still am. However, family and I just did about 3,000 mile road trip for the Holidays and THAT nonsense has convinced me to rethink flying. I'm actually thinking about becoming a pilot and buying a Cessna or Piper so I don't ever have to get on Interstate 85 the rest of my life. It was horrible.

You drive I 85 from VA to Atlanta, GA to get to Florida, you be begging to get on a plane.

Oh, I can't help you, no boat here. [emoji26]

if you are willing to go a little slower you can take roads thru GA other than I75 and I85 and I95.

Here's another thing about destination weddings... The bride and groom might not even really want you there. [emoji48]

Why waste a vacation attending someone's wedding? I sure wouldn't spend thousands of dollars going to an island of this couple's choosing to see them get married.
