Joe's Bayou has a launch and it's in Destin. Easy in-easy out , about $20.00. No trailer parking. The bayou emptys into the bay. 10 minutes from the bridge at Destin adding the idle zone!

I'll be out there, not running but drinking beer and drooling over everyone else's boats... We'll be chillin at the Island Oasis stop (not really a stop this year) in my Cobalt...
BTW - Best spot to launch is going to be on Navarre Beach... Nice ramp and a ton of parking.

VERY dissapointed with Sunrise Marina. Dock was flimsy - had a piling bend and let the boat get into the dock 
and the pier would wiggle underneath you when you put lateral stress on it like going from boat to dock. Also no boat launch nearby and no office or personnel on site. Security seemed to be nonexistent at night, but with plenty of seedy characters there after dark.
Gassed up at the Brooks Bridge Marina and all I can say is they are where I will store the boat next year. Nice people, good location, and everything you need in one place.It is gonna cost more, but full service will be worth it.

Yep, we stored our trailers at Brooks Bridge and they were very accomodating. Twinscrews is right about Legendary also. Great facility and great people. The first year we attended I rack stored my boat at A.J.'s. Needless to say, that never happened again. Boat was never in the water when they said it would be and had numerous other problems (batteries left on, oil leaking onto upholstery from an outdrive above etc. etc.) 
. Now we rent a house and keep the boats right there where we can keep an eye on them.
