How to cruise
With my sailboat at Tarpon Springs, she is about 250 miles from the
place on lake Okechobee where I want her hauled. So, how to get her there. By ICW, it is no longer than by going on the outside to Fort Myers but on the outside one can cruise at night cutting the overall time down. However, I am not sure if sailing overnight is really faster for a single handed sailor because he eventually has to stop and sleep for a long time. (I am not sure my daughter will be with me on this next leg of the trip). Distance-wise, the ICW is the same as on the outside but you h |

Inside has the advantage of having anchorages, marinas and restaurants however. |

Well, for one thing, the weather window is considerably broader inside than outside. That is not as true for sailboats as powerboats. Windy weather in which most fishermen would not go out might be ideal for a sailboat. Otherwise, most weather that would cause one to not go outside would also cause you to stay put and not use the ICW. Can you imagine using the ICW in fog, terrifying, I'd rather be offshore. ----------- When it's 6' plus outside, you can still transit the ICW safely. Weather like that is rare on the West Coast of Florida in the spring. You get that kind of stuff a lot more on the Atlantic side. I always thought the nasty chop in the Chesapeake bay was a whole lot worse than anything you usually see in the Gulf. That is why you regularly see 16' runabouts and 20' pontoon boats 8-10 miles offshore around here. Yeah, I guess it's a different animal on this side of FL. |
