Winters here too long boring in PA. After retiring will boat and camp south.

We visited St Johns last winter,want to cruise it again but do a longer trip,some day would like to visit dry tortugas during a keys trip.

Reading lifes a ditch about ICW,and two waterway guides Chesapeake and Norfolk to Jacksonville.

Bob you are the most amazing person ,helpful to all. Knowing there are great human beings out there is heart warming,only wish I had the pleasure of knowing you in person. Very glad you had good results .best wishes.

Remember visiting boat house row in the keys years ago. Reading this reminded me of it. They need to keep all pump outs open and add more. Unreal if you weren't allowed to dump porta potties at home because you needed a receipt.

Read the coast guard info Bob thanks. Now understand about triangles and Squares on ICW. A lot of good info there.

Thanks ,good to know Jim

Thanks Bob for coastguard PDF will study them. I always thought you just had to stay between red and green. Red right return ect, guess there isn't always red and green close enough to just stay between or see next buoy to determine exact channel. Any boating so far I just stayed between the...

Lucky he just got pushed away with no major damage.

Rob Not sure what the fish stakes are ,im guessing some kind of netting. But they are mentioned quite often,to stay clear of them and some are submerged. Im aware of crab trap buoys. Bob was thinking about how the C-Dory can go under a lot of bridges and with the draft go a lot more...

Been reading it everyday started at beginning in Virginia at Willmington area. Learning what Inlets are better than others,anchorages ect.

Congrats,really like that model we made a trip to look at them.

Thanks everyone, want to study the Carolina Loop also,any places we may go next. Casey on your trip that was over 100 days,did you buy guides or rely on Active Captain any other sources?

Now that winter is ahead,thinking of buying some guides for future trips. Maybee Chesapeake to Florida ICW,or others. What guides do you recommend? Someone gave me part of the erie canal,enjoyed studying it,since we did boat in that area 2yrs ago.

Never used to give much thought about mice,but after watching a show about the Hanta Virus it changed my view of them. After a season where they thrived ,people were dying ,CDC was called in tied it into the rodents. Seems they urinate around their travels,if you sweep up and it becomes airborn...

Thanks Bob for all the info,we look forward to attending some future gatherings . After wife puts in 2 years at new job medical coding,at a hospital or wherever she gets hired,I will be planning all kinds of boating and camping trips. Because she can then work from home ,which will be in camper...

When we finally get there someday,is there also a lot of camping or BLM land for dry camping? After enjoying boating and sleeping on the boat a week or two,just wondering the camping that's available. Wonder where you could leave truck camper for the time were on the Lake that's safe? When...
