Re: Speed Limits on ICW
 
OK, now I see the confusion. Portions of the chart say "Idle Speed" while otheres say "Slow Speed".

I went to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation page and found this. It explains the speed differences.

The trip is on this month. Watch for progress in
the SONIC section.

Good Luck on your trip. When are you getting underway?

I've done that trip once North, once South.

If you don't run parts of it outside you'll likely go insane trying to read and figure out all the different speed signs along the way.

Also, brush up on your navigation signs... The more north you go things look different. For example it seems that you see a lot of range markers up north and they are rarely used in Florida.

Yea I know,

My daughter wants to document the trip.

We may have some long days.

Nothing can be as bad as from Lake Worth
to Fort Lauderdale!

Thanks,

Warren

App with all no wake zone maps in FL
 
There is an app called WakeWatch that has maps of all of the no wake zones in Florida. It also has all of the bridge heights and opening schedules. It uses your phone's GPS to follow you, too. Has not only no wake zones, but all of the different flavors, like slow speed minimum wake, speed limits, limits only apply to certain times, etc. There are lots of different types. Same information for the state of CT. Only costs $2.

My Navionics app on Ipad gives posted speedlimit based on gps position and boat speed. Easy

First post on a 10 year old thread selling an app? Lol. Prolly the creator googling everything that pops up and replying to it.

Agreed. Doesn't make it less useful though. In Fla any help on this is always a plus.
