Here's a few pics of one of the FMO runs last year to Cayo Costa which is North up the ICW inside the barrier islands, does this help.

The gulf is great most if the summer and can be a real witch in the winter. I'm also a supply boat captain and spend a lot of time in the gulf. It all depends on the fronts coming down. However when the gulf is snotty we do have the icw which keeps you in barrier islands, not so fortunate on my supply boat. Lol

I just got back from looking at houses in Cape Coral. It's big where do you recommend looking, I looked at houses with sail boat access only because I want no bridges and a quick out. I was looking in the SW area and up the Caloosahatchee river up to the mid point bridge. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

The SW area South of Cape Coral Pkwy, East of Chiquita and West of Skyline is called "Unit 64", that's direct access without any bridges or locks coming out around the bend from Rumrunners, the main channel coming out is called the Gloriana, we live right around the corner from there.
