So noted, Frank.
The nice thing about a run up to Sarasota is if the weather changes and the Gulf is too rough it can be done all ICW. A two hour ride offshore becomes a four hour ride in the ICW but beats getting the truck and trailer. I have done it both ways. I would not want to do ICW both up and back as becomes a bit too long. One way is bearable.

38 days and counting for the fun to begin.
For those who missed Burnt Store Marina
run last year it was a really good time,
and the marina was very helpfull getting
all the boats docked. The food was good
also.
