My 28' sailboat is now in Stuart, Fl after transiting the Okechobee
waterway but I want to get to Bimini and then to the Berry Is. so I
need to get to Miami. However, I am now very tired of the ICW so I
would like to sail down the coast on the outside from Stuart to
Miami. If I stay within 5 miles of land, will I have any problems
with the Gulf Stream pushing me N.?
Wouldn't the charts point this out?

It's amazing what the gov't does for people... oh wait....
It'll be the government that rescues froggy after his clapped-out,
poorly maintained boat falls apart halfway to Bimini.

Your paranoia shines brightly again! It must be pure hell going
through life afraid of everything. So much so that you keep your kids
in their rooms doing practice tests so they won't be hurt in that
dangerous world out there.
Froggy's boat has issues. I wouldn't leave the marina in it.
I'm sure there is no reason for your kid(s) to take practice
exams...with the genetics you contributed to them, they'll be lucky to
qualify for the Army.

Oh, and by the way, what in HELL would a "practice exam" do to help
you gain intelligence? My daughter, in her first year in high school,
is in the gifted program. Next year, her classes include some that
give the appropriate college credits.
So, she was adopted, eh?
Practice exams are designed to teach you about the exams, so you'll gain
insight and be better prepared when you take the actual exams.
I don't know what is being done in SAT tests these days, but I
recall taking the practice SATs in the 9th and 10th grades, and the
actual SATs and the "Achievements" in the 11th grade, along with the
National Merits. I'm sure those exams and the procedures have been
upgraded to take into account today's less literate students.
