We were in the same spot Bradford only about a mile this side of World Wide Sportsman. Bayside Keys Kottage, docking for up to 26' a compound with multiple units.

Yes Bgreene except I didn't use the big prop. It only runs 56 with the 21P Thunderbolt on the limiter, full of fuel, water, fishing equipment, tools, spare prop,well you get the picture...
I did get to race a little RIB inflatable lady cop with a 300 Yamaha.
She was going about 20MPH on plane in the channel leading up to TeaTable cut and it was too narrow to pass there IMO.. She let it off plane to check out a guy that was way up in the shallows of Florida Bay using her binoculars. I pulled up beside her and told her how slow she was going. The rib is on plane at 20 MPH and I thought that was kinda neat. I told her my boat likes 40 mph in that smooth water. She said she didn't see me there???? But it will go a little faster. That is all she had to say. We had a "Spirited Run" from TeaTable through the mangrove channels all the way to Founders Park. There are a couple hairpin turns to anyone that has taken the route, especially the one where you enter Whale Harbor Channel thru the unmarked cut, then sharp left and no water either side of the boat.. She didn't have me on speed, but she didn't say she was WFO either. Girls and their toys. Ummm that didn't come out right, OH Geez I'm outta here. Good thing she didn't check my fishbox... I did not do the proper thing on those Speckled Hind. Only allowed one a person and it counts toward the Grouper Aggregate. I will still post it up. They aren't dated.. I try to uphold the American Tradition of Being Law Abiding Citizen yada,yada,yada....V
