Hi:

Anyone else there Christmas Day to share a toast to the frozen north? We are arriving on Christmas Day, and would like to know if there are local stores that we can drive the boat to get groceries, supplies and/or dinner? The next day we shove off for a week's cruise to points north.

The same question applies to West Pam Beach 92 octane fuel and supplies as well as Jupiter island.

Many thanks and Happy Holidays!!!

there are local nautical maps that show you where the marinas are and where there is dining, fuel, etc....pick one up at West Marine or Boats US on eithe r 163 St or 123 St. and Biscayne Boulevard...BoatsUS on 123rd St. is about a Mile South of Spinnakers....these local maps are very helpful and show you all the necessary markings, etc.

good luck and lots of fun to you

There is a great deli/liquer store at the Marriot Biscayne bay. Just dock at the marina/fuel dock. The deli is located on the main floor just south of the Marriott. You can get anything you need here! Also, a great sushi bar close by! Wish I was in Florida now!

we also will be coming in on Christmas day. Plan on doing boating on the 26th. The boys will splash our APACHE in the morning 1st thing. Hope to meet you.

Great, thanks for the info!

Hey Little Tommy, hope to meet you too. Likely will take off on Christmas day though.

Boat has had new gas tanks installed, been detailed and is sitting the water waiting for us.

On the recent Key West Poker Run, I spilt one of the two year old custom, powdercoated gas tanks.

Decided to yank both of them out and replace with standard Sonic tanks. Ugh, always something!

Happy Holidays to both of you if we don't connect!

Anybody heading south? We're in Ft. Lauderdale today (Christmas). Plan to head down to Key West either Friday, hopefully by noon - or first thing Saturday AM.
