Yes, I did buy the boat from Gil. I have a 43' clearance limit where I'm keeping the boat (near Satellite Beach) so I can't get much bigger. The only thing I've found bigger that fits is a Watkins 29, which is a nice hefty boat. My yacht club has monthly races and the Watkins don't seem quite as competitive as the C27s :-)
To answer the person about Biscayne Bay, sorry, don't know much about it. Happy New Year all.
