I am heading down there this today for a week for business and will be checking out potential marinas for November-April. If anyone has a recommendation for a 42' two weeks/month liveaboard, please pass it on? I certainly promise to return the favor, as I know people are close-mouthed about slip opportunities. I might end up in Stuart, kinda far away and not the best solution, but waay better value. Regards, Jim PS - I see why the message traffic is down! In a message dated 10/1/2009 12:00:42 A.M.

best value in miami is Dinner Key... great location, reasonable rates (for SOFL). They should have some slips that size on a montly basis. Bayshore Marina, ex Monty's Marina, had slips available for winter when i checked a couple of months ago, a little more exposed, noisy and higher priced, i think it was around $30 a ft a month Rickenbacker may have slips but the wakes there are terrible. it's cheaper though. speaking of dinner key, they have finally built the mooring field, completed about 2 or 3 months ago, but still empty. It turns out that the city has run out of money to build the dinghy dock, hire personel and build showers/heads. one of the employee said it was oging to be done by next month.... They do have a new large pump out boat (free to any vessel in the area, not jsut on the moorings) and a crane is currently working on setting rocks on the bay side of the spoil islands to protect the marina in case of a storm..
