re:City Marina

If this is the marina I am thinking of...With a mast over 45 feet you will want to use the mooring field. There is a power line that crosses the entrance to the marina at 50 feet. The showers and the dingy dock are both convenient from the moorings.

Have a great time.

If you are a bunch of guys sailing to Key West stay in the thick of it. Go to Conch Harbor or the Gallion. Yep somewhat expensive but you are right downton and can walk over to all the "hot Spots" and eat close to the boat and the harbor. that way if you over do it. and some do, its an easy crawl back. Have fun. Also start early for the Tortugas it is a hike out there. You can always go half way if the wind is wrong and anchor in the Marquesas.
