Woops, I sent this yesterday but left the digest subject heading.
Hi,
You can probable get Claiborne Young’s guide “Cruising Guide to Western
Florida” used for a few dollars nowadays, but all of of this information and
more are online at Young’s original site: The Salty Southeast Cruisers’ Net.
The site provides details on the ICW from VA to Panama City, FL. The info is
also available via a free iOS app “SSECN”. This is one of the good resources
along with Active Captain as already mentioned. Active Captain is wonderful,
its the Yelp of cruising. AC has a direct website access, but the website uses
Adobe Flash which is not supported by most smart phones. For iPhone and
offline use, I use AC via the Garmin BlueChart app. The app is free, and
Active Caption on the app is free. I once purchased the add on maps for $9,
but I have not paid for updated maps as I prefer Navionics.

> Would love to hear your recommendations, and even meet up with local owners!
