St Petersburg Muni Has Vacancies!!

I keep my boat in downtown St Petersburg at the muni, and was surprised to see the number of vacant slips. After speaking to the office, I confirmed they have vacancies for boats under 34’ and the list for boats 34-44 is small and shrinking.

Looks like a good time to get into a decent marina in downtown!!

Nah. St Petersburg is usually a safe snug spot.

Like Delray and Ft Lauderdale used to be

Thanks. With luck, we will be cruising in that area in the spring. Crossing Florida, then up the west coast to St. Pete and as far as Tarpon Springs.
