Recommendations for good marina in northern FL Keys?

Hi everyone,

I have a 47' Jeanneau sailboat with a 5.5' draft, beam 15'. I am moving the boat to Florida and am looking to keep it long-term at a marina where I can take the family for quick trips (3-5 days) to the Bahamas. The pilot charts show the winds (at least in the first half of the year) to be coming from the E-SE, so based on that I'm thinking that basing somewhere near Key Largo
or a little south would reduce the amount of time spent beating into the wind even (especially considering the Gulf Stream would kick me north). The main places I imagine we'll go in the Bahamas would be Nassau, Warderick Wells park, Stanley Cay, Marsh Harbor and Green Turtle Cay.

If anyone has any recommendations, just general areas or even specific marinas to look into, would appreciate it much.

Take care and thanks,
'Dubs
