How far offshore do I have to travel when going south from Fort Pierce
to Miami to avoid the gulf stream??


Stay as close to shore as possible. I like to travel about 300 yards
(meters) off the beach in about 20 ft (6 meters) of water. Trying to
avoid the Gulf Stream by going around it to the east does not work and
adds a lot of extra distance.
