Fellow Florida west coast mariners of the SeaCraft persuasion, I have reached a consensus with leadership approving an official Gathering at the Island Of LaCosta (Cayo Costa) during the above referenced weekend.
Those requiring the luxury of air conditioning are urged to engage the facilities nearby known as Cabbage Key (www,cabbagekey.com / phone no. 877-983-8814) for room or cottage reservations.
All other scallawags are welcome to the farting, snoring and drinking festival at Casa de la Costa. (Or you can just tie up at the dock)
The red tides and green algaes have been no where to be found and redfish, snook and trout are abundant for your inshore fishing pleasure. Offshore grouper, snapper and yellowtail along with an occasional triple tail near the stone crab trap floats are in season. At that time Stone Crab Season will be in full swing so bring your bibs.
The nearest boat ramp to Cabbage Key and Cayo Costa Island is Pineland Marina on Pine Island. They are at 13921 Waterfront Drive, Bokeelia, FL. 33922.

Well, I had a cottage lined up there. Just called them (cabbage key) and that weekend is almost filled, except for 2 rooms at the Inn. Now looking for places on mainland.

Looking forward to it. Have not been back to Cayo Costa late spring (before bugs). Fish then were coming back strong, should be even better now.

We will need one that is dog friendly if there is one. I'll run it by Mel and see how it looks for us. Audi is now going on 5 and will be joining us as well. Shoot me a link for on the water places and I will try to work something out.

Ken-

I sent you a few pet friendly, on the water places. Check your PMs.

Mel and I are trying to get booked. Right now we are waiting for a response asking if we can park our boat in the canal. We would be arriving on the 6th with the Audi and the dogs and leaving the following Sunday. We did well spearing last time with Terry and the gang so I'm hoping I will be able to put my new shoulder to work for this next trip.
