Boot Key


We have now been in Boot Key for a night and a day and we are still amazed at what this place is all about.  We didn't get out to do much picture taking but we'll try harder tomorrow.

The dinghy dock is something else....we've have seen many different types of boats and met a number of people.  One dinghy came over to say hi and they were from Sodus Bay.  They said there are boats here from Henderson Harbor, Rochester and the Tanyana next to Kismet just finished a circumnavigation!  The sizes are all varied also....from 24 footers and up.   It is pretty cool to see all the multihulls also.  I promise to do a good job on getting pictures of the coolest ones.

We are going to stay here for a few days and learn the lay of the land.  Tomorrow there is a seminar at the club house on the Bahamas.

How full are they? Do they get full at times during the season? how deep? We thought the place had closed down and was being remodeled and bought by some company?A&J

Boot Key harbor now has 226 moorings inside and a few people are anchoring in the fringe. The new shower room will be done (we are told) next month and there are tons of boats here. It's plenty deep for any boat and most everyone stays at least a week. Many are waiting for a window to head to the Bahamas and we will probably use this harbor when we go.
