Default Boats in FL

Thanks for the info. I thought that Fla. might have even more than that,
but, I think Fla's coastline is relatively straight. I just found out on
the WWW that our neighbor, Maine, has a lot more miles of coastline:

"Maine's coastline is long, craggy and has many inlets. What looks like 228
miles on a map, is 3,478 miles of tidal coastline in reality, including the
offshore islands."


The difference being Maine's shoreline was measured at low tide
whereas Florida's was measured at high tide.
