Looking for Dock - FL - Bradenton to Venice

Looking for a dock/slip from Bradenton to Venice for a 38ft sailing cat with a 22 ft beam. I live in Sarasota and housing the boat in Tampa is not ideal.

Try Regatta Point Marina or Twin Dolphin Marina. They're on the Manatee River with no bridges between them and the open Gulf. Personally, I'd opt for the Twin Dolphin because it's a little better protected. No idea about availability.

Tried both and no availability. Also nothing at Fishermans wharf, marine max or venice yacht club.

FWIW...

Have you checked Longboat Key Club Moorings? There are several Cats in there.

Further south there is Charlotte Harbor which is great sailing. Punta Gorda marina requires less than 45' air draft, Fisherman's village almost sure to be a waiting list and Burnt Store which was only half full last time I was there, but it is 10 miles for civilization. There is one other there, but can't remember the name.
