EAST COAT FLORIDA

I will have a sailboat arriving in West Palm Beach FL next month. I am looking for recommendations on yards and slips in the area that can accommodate an 8' draft and 68' mast. Eventually, we will be shipping by truck to the west coast. Willing to cruise to a location in close proximity. Information I have gotten thus far is reasonable slips are hard to come by. I appreciate any help.

If you come into the Jupiter inlet, on a day with good conditions, there are no fixed bridges to the south to Seminole Marine, near PGA Blvd. They can handle large vessels and they allow DIY work.

Heading south from the Jupiter inlet there no fixed bridges until just before the Lake Worth inlet.

Our marina is just off the ICW, just north of the Donald Ross bridge. We had a neighbor with a 70’ mast. He could only get to the ocean via the Jupiter inlet.
