I always wanted to rent a houseboat and cruise the Ohio River or to check
out the Ft. Myers area.

======================================

I live across the river from Ft Myers and can see it from my back
deck. You could cruise a houseboat in the river here but you'd be
better off getting a trawler so you could go out in the Gulf also. On
a windy day even the river could be a bit rough for a houseboat,
depends on size and freeboard.
