Customer Observations

"What a great day we had, warm breezes and a great trip to Cabbage Key for our lunch on the patio, what a view!  We ONLY saw 4 dolphins, got two great pics.  Thanks Mike & Mo, we'll be back, see you in Maine when the ice melts"  - James Rey, Standish, Maine 11/10

Thanks, Mike. A great sail...on a great day...with a great teacher. Thanks,  Sid 2/10

" We had a great time on your boat. Sailed over to Cape Haze, then to Burnt Store, and back to the marina—All without hitting anything or touching bottom!  The day was about as perfect as you could ask for, had reasonable wind, and were only becalmed for about 15 minutes during a wind shift.Thanks again for making your boat available and your flexibility in scheduling....Take care and best of luck in your new business location" . - Tom 12/09

More about Sailing in Charlotte Harbor:

IN TOP 10 SAIL MAGAZINE GREATEST PLACES TO SAIL

SAIL magazine has listed Charlotte Harbor as one of the top 10 greatest places to sail in the United States. The June issue of SAIL describes in a "Heavenly Harbor" article the Charlotte Harbor as 20 miles long and 10 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, and "provides cruising options galore."

Lined with mangrove forests and protected by barrier islands, the harbor offers wide-open sailing areas, limited boat traffic, an abundance of anchorages, an (unusual for some parts of Florida) a lack of bridges. Gasparilla Island, the historic town of Punta Gorda, and Cayo Costa State Park on Pelican Bay are three of the area's cruising hot spots. Charlotte Harbor's sailing season is year round.

Local cruisers and trailersailors are spoiled by water temperatures that top 85 degrees in summer and sea breezes that register 12 to 15 knots.

Once your're out of the harbor, the gulf is your playground. There's Venice to the North, Naples to the South, and scenic Captiva and Sanibel Islands.

CHARLOTTE HARBOR YEAR ROUND:
Average wind speed 7 knots
Average air temperature 74 degrees
Average water temperature (June) 85 degrees
