I am coming back from the Caribbean to find work. I plan on first
checking out South Florida and am looking for information on living
aboard either at a Marina or a private canal dock. I also would like
any tips on places to anchor where it is safe to leave a boat unattended
and the local marine cops do not look to hassle you. TIA for
responses. Larry


Larry, we keep our 40 foot ketch (6 foot draft) at Legacy Marina in Fort
Myers for $440 per month.. Yearly rates are less.. They welcome live
aboards, and it's convenient to shopping downtown.. No hassles with
anyone.. Wifi is available, cable and water are included, and electric is
metered.. Anchoring out in the river is also an option..

Plenty of help wanted ads in this area, although you didn't say what you
do.. Let me know and I'll be more specific..

Legacy's phone is: 239-461-0775
