Tennessee to Jacksonville

MissDarlin459 · 27-08-2007, 22:47

Hello,

We are planning a cruise from the Tennessee River via the Ten-Tom around Florida to the St. John's River. We are planning on leaving in mid-November, hoping to avoid (active) hurricane season.

I am waiting for my cruising guides to arrive so I can start planning but the charts are on the boat and the boat is far away right now

.

I would really appreciate any information on how far it is from point to point or how much time you would allow. Suggestions? Recommendations?

We are also looking into leaving the boat in Jacksonville for a few months.

Thanks
Darlene

I suggest that you dock the boat in June.

If you mast is taller than 53 feet you will need to go via Everglades. Draft if everything in Fl. That will depend on where you go more than anything else. Cruise guides are good. You will miss far to much anyway.

Bug screens of course.
