spare i have taken a 17 whaler to the keys and have taken the daydreamer twice!! yes its a long haul but there is nothing like having your boat there.we stayed in islamorada and went by water to the world wide sportsman and ate lunch ther,and watched all the boats coming and going. from where we were at we cut thru a mangrove cut to get there. also you can go to whale harbor in taviner. its on your right going back up. if you go at three-o-clock all the sportfishing boats are coming in and it is a tight basin.they have a bar that is up overlooking the marina.if you want to see some fancy boat docking thats the place those guys are good!!!take the boat

Don't worry about the tow my friend. Don't forget I used to tow my V20 from NJ to Naples, Fla twice a year without incident. Just have a spare tire or two, a tire repair kit, a 12v portable compressor, extra bearings, and a new tube of greese and you'll be fine. On an 18' footer you'll hardly know she's back there. Merry Christmas!!

Speaking of Christmas in the Keys...my family will be in Big Pine Key over Christmas vacation.

I am dragging the V behind the RV...you will have to come down and go fishing with us.
