[C320-list] Is it or isn't it time for a new avenue

[Jack Brennan]

Good to hear.

We were going to the Bahamas, but decided this was the year to head north instead after realizing how few fun stops remained between here and Marathon after Ian.

We're going to Crystal River, Cedar Key and several other stops on the way to Apalachicola Bay. Maybe up to Panama City. Lots of kayaking with manatees.

I'm still in mourning for Bonita Bill's in Fort Myers Beach.

My boat survived!  Port side chewed down to fiberglass mat, but all fixed now!  $20,000 to make her pretty.

I wrote article about it- will be in next Mainsheet magazine.

Taking her to the Keys most of March.  Then, up by you late April.  Thank God for Geico!!
