Free Dock!

A boater likes nothing better than a free place to tie up. Most marinas charge by the foot. The further south you go the more expensive they get. They charge by the foot, usually somewhere between 1-2 dollars. Obviously we avoid the 2 buck a ft. and higher stops as much as possible as it adds up fast when your boat is 38 ft. long!
Tonight we are staying at jim king park outside of Jacksonville right near the sister creek drawbridge and there is no charge. Pretty nice!
We crossed the border today and we are now officially in Florida. A beautiful day in every way!

1/26/13-Sitting here at the dock this morning watching all of the weekend fishermen dropping in their boats and heading out for a day on the water fishing. There is a steady stream of traffic. Seems strange since many of my buddies up north are also heading out to fish...on the ice.
