Glad to hear the Cape area is good for the younger folks too. Am working to figure out a way to get down there, nothing better than boating year round in pretty water.

Both of you win, we'll see you in 8-10, but until then you can visit, the water is beautiful.

You and our buddy Joey 314 need to be quiet about our little part of paradise. It's crowded enough already on Friday afternoons at the bars. I use to get there at 4:30 pm for a seat at the Monkey Bar now I got to leave the house by 4:00. LOL pretty soon I will have to leave at 3:30 . That 's to early to start drinking for a retire person.

Last year April , I`m laying out at Bonita beach and I was praying for clouds, when the sun peeks out I felt like someone just turned the oven on high BROIL!! Holy crap!
and that was early summer! Then you go in the water to cool off and the salt water just burns your eyes.. UGH .. I`m just not seeing the raging boner over FloriduH ...To each his own thou... I`m a skier so I like the cold.
I also like my Fresh Lake Michigan water. I can jump in 5 miles out and not have to worry about something bitting your leg off or some jelly fish sting and that nasty salt eating the boat and trailer???... Pass

There's a little more room, just for the believers, we love the Monkey Bar too, plus we love the Joint up at Cape Harbour.

Tarpon point is good. The Dog off del prado and the new ford's garage are my top 3.
