I'm pondering the recent thread on a bigger boat. This venue is lovely. We've watched a lot of sailboats and power boats come and go to/from the the marina a bit north. If I was to bring Touché here it would take 5 days. A 30 would only take 3 days. I can't get Touché under the ICW bridges at Navarre Beach or Fort Walton. Similarly, I can't get under the East Pass bridge coming in from the gulf at Destin. I'd have to transit all the way to Panama City, enter St. Andrews Bay then come back west via the ICW to get into Chocotowatchee Bay. That's an extra 2 days. Friend of mine traded his Beneteau 47 for an Island Packet 485. Now he can't get under the Pensacola Beach bridge to sail Santa Rosa Sound, some really prime sailing waters. So, there are some disadvantages to a bigger boat. Dennis C.
