Florida Keys Anyone?

[crazycarl]

Once again I'm planning a trip to the Keys.
(barring any injuries/surgeries)
My plan is to launch from Key Largo January 6th and sail until February 3rd. From there I'll be driving to Cape Coral where my wife will be waiting at her sister's house.

Joanie hasn't purchased a plane ticket yet so I'm flexible on the dates until she does.

There are only 2 keys I definitely want to see again, so I'm flexible on destinations too.

This invitation is for anyone interested in joining me for a day, several days, a week, or the entire trip,

ALL UPDATES WILL BE POSTED ON THIS THREAD.

Suncat Second Wind is hoping to be there.

I might make a week or so too.  Count me as a definite maybe.  Sail on,  Al

Hi Carl,

When you get to Cape Coral come up to Punta Gorda and I'll give you a ride on my Corsair 24 Trimaran.  Sailing at 15 kts is addictive.

That sounds great, thanks Bryan.

If a suitable weather window opens, I'd like to sail to the Dry Tortugas.

Doing some research on the Dry Tortugas. Apparently March - May the water is the calmest. December to March may produce a rough crossing.

We were in the Dry Tortugas last Feb.  We had a great crossing but the previous day, they had 9 foot rollers.  ugh and barf.... I guess the later in the Spring, the better.  But, what a great place to sail to.
