Phat, here's a listing of the artificial reefs.

Are you staying in a cabin, tent or RV?
Also, a must stop and check it out: Islamorada World Wide Sportsman:
http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/st...=94&storeID=21
and by the way, the restaurant next to them, Islamorada Fish Co. is excellent!
Let me know if I can help/get you anything? I'm only a few miles from the turnpike and I can meet you at a stop.

Looks good there Phatdaddy. I considered when the time comes to change my hubs to the same bolt pattern as my truck that way I have two tires with me that fit both the vehicle and the trailer. Drive safe and have fun. Get some good shots of the V!

Toyota 2WD , ford ranger, and Ferm's rims off the pink jeep!

I'd probably wait untill both my tires and rims were shot and do a total replacement. Now that I live 2 miles from the ramp I'll probably never have the opprotunity.

Bahia Honda is a neat place. I'd rather camp there than stay in a hotel in Key Weird.
