I wanted to make the run myself from Cedar Key but the amount of fuel $$$ and my limited time off wouldn't allow for a weather contingency if needed. I did ask the wife to just drive the truck and trailer down there to cover for that but it was vetoed .
No worrys though, retirements coming and my goal this weekend is to live like Island Trader and travel like Bushwacker!

Jim it depends which way your coming from. From the north Eldreds, or as Terry likes to call them Elrods, from the south or east Pineland would be closer. Your call, we can find you as long as you wait at the dock with your Mickey Mouse ears on.

Jim, Been around them parts for a while -
Cabbage key to Eldred's - 12.5 miles across Charlotte Harbor
Cabbage Key to Pineland - 4.60 miles across somewhat protected,
Pine Island Sound.
It kinda depends on when you'er going to get there. If you can catch a ride with Conner, his boat smoothes out evetything even when it's blow'in 15. Pineland is about 45 minutes south of Eldred's by car but ya' get to go down Burn Store Road and then through Matlacha' and that is a treat. If the wind comes up like it's supposed to we'll need a 23 to get you at Eldred's. We can git you in a Scampi at Pineland in a Hurricane.
It's all good Brother - you'er com'in from South Carolina we'll pick you up in Tarpon Springs! Just turn them wheels and we'll see you at the dock!
