Re: Venice Florida Marina

Although we are not the 350 at Fishermans, we've stayed there many times. Great marina. Easy access to downtown, laundry and grocery stores. Very helpful Dockmaster, George. Will be back there in February hopefully.

Re: Time to Re-Design the Aft Garage

Sent pics when completed please. Although we use the aft cabin for sleeping on occasion, we have considered installing a cargo net up from the headboard and above the port side "foot end" of the berth for light storage items.
