Florida bareboat charter

[dscribner]

Thinking about a short charter in Florida this winter. Can't afford BVI again for a couple of years. Someplace around the Port Charlotte area. Any suggestions? Would welcome a personal "loan" of a 28 footer for four days, willing to pitch in a sizeable chunk to help with upkeep (wink, nudge). Or a real charter company in the area with boats this size.

If any body can help, let me know

I've used them twice. Also check out the Keys. There are several places that rent a house with a boat like a C22. Did that once years ago too.

I have seen some of this companies Trawlers from the outside only, but they look well maintained. http://www.swfyachts.com/webpages/sail_rates.htm

probably too small for your needs but these seem affordable -no affiliation.

echoing Higgs, I had a good experience chartering from SW Florida Yachts. Many nearby islands to explore. http://www.swfyachts.com/webpages/why.htm
