It is hard to beat boating South down to Marco Island or North up to Sarasota on New Years Day, like a dream come true.

Florida does rock, big FMO run at the end of this month. Love the frenchy too. We are looking to get the same when we move here soon and get settled in. Hoping to make the FMO run this month. Waiting on a possible trip we might have to take. If it falls through ww are doing the run for sure. |

I just came back from a long wknd in FL. Spent the wknd on my buddy's cruiser. Didn't see a single performance boat from St. Augustine to Daytona. Other than a 24' Checkmate on a lift. Friggen love it down there and will be online tonight looking at foreclosure homes!

Cape rocks
385 miles of canals with access to the gulf. Never before, never again will a man-made purpose built city be built with year-round boating ability..... |
I'd say now in FMO there's 1/3 cats, 1/3 V-hull performance boats and 1/3 CC and we all get along great.

Let's put in this way:
Some of the California SCOPE guys ship their boats to FLORIDA for the winter. No one ships their boats to the left coast for 3 months! :ernaehrung004::boat::party-smiley-020: |

Out of curiousity...how far south would I have to go in late December to get some good boating weather?
My wife and I have 10 days off after Christmas, and if there's no snow in the Northwoods OR on the slopes in Colorado, option #3 is going to be hook up the AT and roll south... The question is...how FAR south... Don`t forget your passport amigo!! http://www.texasgulfcoastonline.com/...n%20Border.jpg Being somewhere during Christmas with no cold weather or snow is just depressing to me.. |

We made the drive from Florida back to St. Louis yesterday and I definitely felt like I was going the wrong direction as I saw numerous rigs heading south.
