Why you still will have the leaf blower and street sweeper coming down that street but it just will be a hour later.

there are some boat ramps ,but they can't handle anything big,your best bet is to call murray marine(of nick carter racing/fountain)they can probably help point you in the right direction,a lot of the marinas down here went condo,there is a boat ramp at garrison bight/charter boat row on truman ave. murray 305-296-0364 if they can't help they know someone who can

stay on duval if you can(but not in the 800 block,although they say it only hurts the first twenty times)you will be stumbling distance from your room,during race week you will not be bored,but you will miss your boat,because there is a ton of hardware in the bight,keep in mind the island is only 2x4 so if your bored you can walk home,and you better book early
