    • Fort Myers Mooring Field (Caloosahatchee River)

      Please note the mooring field which is the subject of this posting is NOT the field at Fort Myers Beach, but rather the smaller field on the Caloosahatchee River, just off the Fort Myers City Marina (A SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR), hard by Lofton Island.
      There was an earlier posting here on the Net’s “Western Florida” section which indicated that both sail and powercraft were now eligable to pick up a mooring here. As you will see below, Captain Barbara’s info is that only sailcraft may moor here.
      So, I telephoned the good people at Fort Myers City Marina and confirmed that they now ACCEPT BOTH SAIL AND POWERCRAFT IN THEIR MOORING FIELD!

      Subject: mooring field city of Fort Myers
      Cruising News: The city of Fort Myers mooring field on the ICW advised us that they will only allow sailboats on their mooring balls. Does anyone know why trawlers or power boats are not allowed? Since Fort Myers Beach mooring balls are available to everyone, it does not seem to be a Lee county or Florida issue.
