Have you considered chartering something like a Lear Jet? If you
have a suitable air strip near you in MA, you could be at Ft
Lauderdale or Ft Myers in about 3 1/2 hours door to door. Have your
boat delivered south in the fall and you'd have a dockside condo
waiting for you a phone call away. If you kept a boat in the Ft Myers
area on the west coast we could look after it or find someone who
would.
