    Regular stop on my deliveries. Easy in and out, great staff and a great restaurant!

    This time we had a problem getting out of the yard in Miami. Called here and got a last minute reservation. We arrived after the office was closed, so they left a key for us. In the morning we opened gas dock, left key FOB with them and were underway 0730.

    If you spend the night, be sure to hit the restaurant. Like many places down in The Keys, the prices 'ain't what they were'. But the food is still great.

  • Bridge comment on Ben Sawyer Memorial (SC 703) Bridge

    Please note the comments state the bridge "need not open". This makes it sound discretionary.

    Called bridge tender for clarification. This bridge DOES NOT open 7-9 and 4-6

      Capt. Bill: Thanks for your comment. The text in the bridge listing is directly from the CFR's.
