My wife and I are planning to retire and move to Florida. We are power
boaters
and enjoy fishing and cruising. We also enjoy tennis and the beach.
Previous
boats have been 20-30ft. in length

We live on the west coast (Sarasota) It's a great place to live & boat. Lots of
culture, good restaurants and lots of boating, from canals to the Gulf. Like
another poster. I think the people are a little friendlier. I attribute that to
a little slower pace.
Good luck.
