Fort McRee, Pensacola
 
Anybody know the condition at the little "cove" at Fort McCree in
Pensacola? Did the hurricanes mess it up? I remember one could hug the
island and there was deep water almost up to the beach once you got
in.

We're hunkering down at a marina in Slidell, LA until the weather
warms up and then will be cruzin' East. Like to spend a few days
re-exploring the fort and walking the beach.

We draw 6-1/4 ft.

We were there last winter, I remember it well... one my favorite
anchorages (except on weekends)

The deep water going in was closer to the marsh side (south) back
then..

Thanks Doug. We'll creep in when we get there.

Yes, I remember the weekends as being very much party time.
