Re: Motoring the ICW with limited experience

I'm sure you can do it. I bought my boat in MD 4 years ago and brought it to Florida via the ICW. I had limited experience and had never anchored before. My friend was on his boat and I on mine,...

Re: Looking for live aboard marina in SW Florida

There's also Salty Sam's, and maybe some others in Fort Myers Beach. Fisherman's Village in Punta Gorda has liveaboards. Paradise Marina in North Ft Myers is cheap, but might not be good for the...

Re: Resealing new acrylic in fixed window

Thanks for all the replies and PMs. I've mostly used 4200 or similar to seal the frame to the fiberglass, but on this one I had used butyl tape. It was not easy to remove when I had to do this...

Re: I need a liveaboard marina

Regatta Point and the marina across the river in Bradenton are both liveaboard marinas. Because of wait lists it's good to try to get your slip off season, in the summer. Some non liveaboard...

Re: GPS/Satnav usage switches off the brain..

Re: Finally took the leap and a massive risk

Good luck with the "new boat". If you can travel up the St Lucie, Indiantown Marina would work. You can haul your boat and work on it there also if need be. Town is walking distance and it's a very...
