Hi all:
We are new to cruisers forum and are planning to do our first ten day
cruise from Hillsboro Beach to the Keys on our 30 foot sailboat with a 4'9
draft. We are excited as we do all the planning etc, lots to do but have some questions about whether we can really do the
ICW all the way to Channel Five with our
draft. We are thinking of doing that way down and then doing HC on way back depending on
weather. We plan to leave around May20 to 21st. What do you all think is it better to just do HC and go out angelfish creek after
anchoring in Pumpkin Key or can we keep going down
ICW with our draft? The
marinas like Marina Del Mar and Pennekamp, Holiday Isle and Hawk's Cay look great but all on HC and worried about the currents and all with a 30 foot. Thanks in advance for all your input and experience
