Across Florida

[wookie]

I wish to get across Florida rather than go round the Keys as i am coming from Houston and wish to end up in St Augustine area, I have a Hardin 44 6' draft 60' height clearance any ideas you seafarers out there?

You will have to go around the Florida Keys since your mast is too high for the Okeechobee Waterway.

Thanks Tort, Nevermind I heard the Keys are nice in December

This will save a day or so. Pass under the 7 mile bridge.

I brought my Pearson 39 (51' mast) through the Okeechobee Waterway last year, however I had to get the boat "tipped" in order to make it under the 49' railway bridge. All other bridges are 55' min, so still to short for you.
