Its roughly 68 miles from Key West to Dry Tortugas over shallow

be a good Tolman trip

It's safer than a Gulf Stream crossing. We did it last January and
got beat up a bit on the return trip - 25 kts out of the north with 6
to 7 foot beam seas most of the way. There is also a nice little
anchorage at Boca Grande Key east of the Marquesas. In the summer
time you still have thunderstorm risk but you have the option of
seeking shelter or beating a retreat. The longest open water passage
is about 30 nautical miles. You will be just about the smallest boat
out there, even the Cuban refugees use bigger.




If you were a nice guy, D'whine, you'd offer to "convoy" with O'Hara.
After all, you're both in Florida, and you certainly have nothing of
importance to do anymore. Right?


Here we have a perfect example of Harry being Harry. Wayne's post was
informative to the OP's question, and had absolutely no reference to Harry.
Yet, Harry is compelled to respond with a snarky comment. Why?

Perhaps because he's lonely and wants someone to talk to him?

Sure thing. Just like you there, JohnnyPotkettle
