How long would it take by boat going 50mph? Would be starting at Jacksonville landing to Backwater Inn in Astor, FL

Ok. Hate to sound like a dick but I'm gonna. If your a captain that should be easy to plot out. One of the most basic things a captain does is plot a course and figure out speed/distance. Not difficult.

Well I looked at the map it's around 100 miles one way. I was just wondering if their any no wake zones between Jacksonville and Astor. I've never boated on the St. John's River before.

For the most part there are no No Wake Zones... Except from The Landing to the Fuller Warren Bridge which is less than a mile... And when you get to the southern end of Lake George (110ish miles later) there is a short No Wake as you funnel back into the river, then another a mile or so later which the Blackwater Inn is in the middle of.

Figure 2 hours give or take.

Hi, mosport1
Thank you for all the details you had mentioned. Hopefully sometime soon I can take my boat down to the St. Johns River and do the round trip in one day.
