Welcome. Not sure how active the site is, but it is also the off season so we will see when it gets closer to spring. Next time you are over this way get with us, we are on the St Johns and the Intercoastal all the time.
Silver Glen right off of Lake George. Been going there for a while now. On a good day there is hundreds of boats in there. It is a blast, lots of great people, just anchor up and walk around. Do a little BBQing, spend the night, constant water temp…

They do a lot of St Johns stuff.
Would it be ok to hook up with you guys at Bonnies on the way to Swamphouse?? That is where I store my boat. It needs to be run, and the Swamphouse is an awesome place.

Great ramp at I-4 & 17/92. There are several no wake zones getting to Hontoon Island. First one is very short at Higbanks, then a real long one at Blue Springs and then Hontoon Island is just past Blue Springs. It takes about an hour to get to Honto…

Hi John!
I just got back into boating myself and am new to the Florida waters, nice to meet you looking forward to some Islands and general fishing fun chaos. I love having a little cabin you can crash out in.
I'm downtown Orlando right now but yo…
New to this site. Usually launch at the Volusia Co. ramp at 17/92. Like going south on the St. Johns, since there are no speed limits. However, you need to know where you are going since there are no channel markers. Also enjoy launching at Porkey's…
Lake George is huge, but very shallow. That is why when it storms it kicks up big time. No bomb testing anymore as far as I know.
We live right off I-4 at exit 116. The marina is about 10 to 15 minutes from there. So from Longwood probably no more…
That sounds pretty good, thanks for the info! I checked, and Astor is a bit of a drive, even in a car...looks like it would take about and hour and 15 minutes to get there from where I am in Longwood. Not sure where in Deland your Marina is, but tha…

Yes you can cruise thru the Harris Chain to the Silver River and right up to the springs. You can launch anywhere on the lakes. Where you're headed is the north end of Lake Griffin and the Ocklawaha River. Proceed north thru the river to the Moss Bl…
WHAT?!? We can get to Silver Springs off the Harris chain??? Please give directions! That would be an awesome cruz!
Hello Steve,
You might want to check out the Harris Chain of Lakes just a little northwest of Orlando. The chain is massive (148 square miles)
never over crowded and a great weekend destination. Trimble State Park in Tangerine just south of Mount Do…
