Sounds like someone's been fishing near Homosassa and Crystal River. You haven't lived 'til you hit an oyster bar at 20 kts.

I did it just after sundown with two women riding the roof of the Seafari cabin. Both made it all the way to the water beyond the oyster bar

No injuries except to pride and prop and two lost adult beverages.

Leland, Gheenoes are good for harassing Snook in. We have about 8 miles of mangrove shore on Cayo Costa and too many mangrove Islands in Pine Island Sound to count. Think about it.
