Are you still planning a run to the Bahamas in your S2 ?


Am s'posed to be leaving for the bahamas within two weeks. *Daughter
has to graduate from UNF first this coming weekend.


Let me know if you need a place to dock in the Ft Myers area. * We are
on a deep water canal just off the Caloosahatchie River/Okeechobee
Waterway, about 10 miles upriver from Sanibel Island/Ft Myers Beach.
Going through Lake Okeechobee saves about *150 miles to the Bahamas if
you draw less than 6 ft and can get under a 49 ft bridge.


Wow, what a kind offer. We will be taking that route as my mast is
47' and I draw 3' 10". My biggest problem right now is that I have
not been able to get a bottom job done yet (no facilities anywhere
near here) so will have to have it done en-route while I come back to
work a week. Any suggestioins on a yard?
