Is there a spot on here that posts destinations for other boaters?We are in a 30′ Bayliner heading to South Florida in a few days and looking for others that are going to the Bahamas in mid December.
If anyone is going and looking to travel with another boat, we would appreciate your company and comments.
Thank you,
Ron and Bev

FWC: Derelict Vessel Removal Grants Available
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is announcing the opportunity to apply for Derelict Vessel Removal Grants. The application period for the Bulk Derelict Vessel Removal Grant Program will begin on January 8, 2018 at 8:00 AM (EST), and end on February 21, 2018 at 5:00 PM (EST).
Applications received after February 21, 2018, will not be eligible for consideration in round one, but may be considered for a potential subsequent round, if funding remains available. All removal applications must demonstrate proof that due process was provided for each vessel’s owner. At a minimum, this would include an opportunity for the vessel owner to challenge the derelict vessel determination, either in criminal court or in an administrative hearing. Vessel cases not demonstrating that these opportunities have been offered to the owners of the vessels will not be considered for state funding assistance. Should funding be available for a second or subsequent rounds of applications, new announcements will be made. The grant guidelines and application form may be downloaded at: http://www.MyFWC.com/DVGrant.You may also receive the guidelines and application by contacting Phil Horning at (850) 617-9540 or email DVGrant@MyFWC.com.
Applications that meet the requirements for the Rapid Removal Grant Program may be submitted at any time after the opportunity announcement start date, but no later than November 31, 2018 at 5:00pm (EST) (based on available funding). Rapid removal cases must also meet due process requirements. Total funding allocated for derelict vessel removal for fiscal year 2017/18 is $488,550. Applications may be mailed to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Boating and Waterways Section, Derelict Vessel Grant Program Administrator, at 620 S. Meridian Street – Room 235, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1600 or emailed to DVGrant@MyFWC.com.

An Invitation from Old Port Cove Marinas, North Palm Beach, AICW Statute Mile 1014
A CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR, Old Port Cove is located on the western shore of the northern Lake Worth channel, near unlighted daybeacon #7. A great place to spend your winter!
Ahoy Boaters:
Season has returned and we are thrilled to be welcoming so many of you back to the beautiful Palm Beaches! While both Old Port Cove and North Palm Beach Marinas are very full, we may have transient dockage available from time to time. Here’s the tip: Call as close to your ETA date as possible. It is very hard for us to know when a boater who has a lease on a slip will be away, that’s the reason.
With so many events and activities planned for the winter season at Sandpiper’s Cove Restaurant & Bar which is located on site at Old Port Cove Marina, we hope you will join us. In the meantime, Happy Cruising – Happy Holidays! Upcoming Events
All the best in cruising,
Sue Morgan, Marketing Director
