Welcome to Ft Myers Offshore (FMO) and in particular Marco Island. I discovered paradise back in 1990. I am seasonal and in Ontario, Canada untill sometime in September. May just make a surprise visit tho and look forward to meeting you. Feel free to tell us your first name and a bit about yourself if you wish. Always nice to see new people that appreciate the world of offshore come to Marco.

Welcome,
You will love the boating down here. 24/7 - 365. Well, except for the occasional hurricane warnings. lol
I believe you used to have a 24' Baja Outlaw?
What are you looking for now?
Look forward to meeting a Baja brother.

Thank you all for the warm reception....My name is Chris and my wifes name is Angela (chris n' ang) I am a network engineer and my wife is a teacher. we both have new jobs already and have rented a house on the island that we move into in the middle of July. I did have a 24 Outlaw that I sold up north, thinking I wanted a 30 plus rig for the Gulf, but have re-thunk that idea and want something to putz around the ICW as well. something around a 25-27 foot I think...;-) Nice to meet you all!

Chris,

Welcome aboard!

Go for the bigger boat - less than 30' will get you bounced around pretty good in the gulf even on decent days. The ICW can handle large boats - even it gets choppy at times. You (and your wife) will thank yourself (you) later.

Is it me, or should the Naples Gang start our own boat brokerage company?????
