Hi Wayne,

Some weeks ago you posted a link to a casual resort down in the Keys with
boats available for the patrons. Do you still have that link and if so
would you mind sharing it again?

Harry mentioned that he stayed there, and that they have 13' Boston
Whalers for their guests to use.

If you go to the Keys, you have to stop in Layton (Mile Marker 68.5...ten
miles north of Rainbow Bend) and eat at Little Italy. It's one of my
favorite restaurants down there. Order the Sicilian Snapper.

Cheeca Lodge in Islamorada has larger Boston Whalers (18') available for
their guests to rent by the day.



Thanks NOYB! We are thinking of a short late January winter junket with a 2
other couples.........flying into Ft. Myers (a long story) and taking the 4
hour ferry trip from there to Key West. We would then either then stay in
Key West or another place in the Keys.

The fact that the resort you offered a link to offers the use of a boat is a
plus, as is the casual atmosphere.

We are looking for something casual and not overly expensive for a short 3-4
day stay at the Keys. We (the group) are not interested in fishing but
looking for casual lodging offering snorkeling, swimming and just having a
fun time.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated. ;-)
