Florida Keys C&C 24 Charter Key largo, Tavernier, Islamo

[kezguy]

Sailboat, C & C 24ft Sloop, "S/V J.ROSE" is available for Rent as Barefoot Rental or U.S. Coast Guard Captained Charters by the 1/2 and full day. She can be rented by the single day or multiple days.
This weekend cruiser has a V-Berth forward that can accomodate two adults and 2 berths to port and starboard. Porta-Potty and small sink with fresh water provided on board. She is powered by an electric start 9.9HP Yahama 4-Stroke Outboard and motors at 6-7Kts. She has roller furling genoa foresail along with her standard mainsail. In her 7ft cockpit is auto-tiller steering, Garmin GPSMAP 168 Plotter/Sounder, along with a JVC CD Stereo, VHF Radio, and all USCG required safety gear as well as Life Line Netting to help prevent overboard losses.
She is fast, easy to handle and sails great to windward. For the more adventurous, Key West can be made in two days sail for a week long trip if time allows. Over-nighting on "J. Rose" is a lot like camping. She is essentially a floating tent with a few more amenities. Spartan accomodations are at hand. There is no bath, shower or air conditioning other than that provided by Mother Nature. Mother Nature can also provide for little nuisances such Florida Keys mosquitoes, "No See-Ums" (or flying Pac-Men as I like to call them), Deer Flys, Intense Sunlight, calm winds, lighting and even hurricanes. Be prepared to "rough it" if over-nighting. This said, a night or two on J.ROSE at anchor in Florida Bay watching the birds, dolphins and spectacular sunsets, unequalled anywhere else, while sipping your favorite beverage can make for an experience and memory of a lifetime. "J.ROSE" is located in an area with miles of beautiful Florida Bay cruising grounds with usually favorable wind and sea conditions. Seas generally range from 1 to 3 feet. Seas beyond 3 feet are not recommended for the trip. The Atlantic Ocean can be reached via Snake Creek in about an hour.
The boat is located in Islamorada in the Florida Keys. It is about 90 minutes from Miami or Key West.
Provided for your use and convenience are ice chests and Pressurized Sprayer to rinse off (your shower!).Some basic utensils and dinnerware.Over night users will have use of dinghy with motor for going to shore.
Everyone should bring along sun protection in the form of lotion, appropriate clothes, a hat and sunglasses. A light waterproof jacket to keep dry and warm is suggested even in the heat of summer. Over-nighters need to bring sleeping gear such a pillow, a light sleeping bag or as we prefer, a set of sheets(top and bottom) to sleep on and under. Think of camping and you will do well, flashlight/headlamp, bug spray, simple first aid kit with antibacterial ointment/cream, bandages, pain reliever, sunburn spray(good for itching too). Bring along plenty of liquids, esp. water, dehydration in the heat is a concern. A gallon per day per person is suggested Limit alcohol intake during your stay for both safety and health. Suggested foods for over-nighting and day trips are best if no cooking or refrigeration is required(no stove provided). Trail mix, snack foods, meatless soups, tuna, cookies, cheese, fruit (dried or fresh), lunch meats, crackers, jerky, protein/power bars are all good. All needed and last minute needs can be obtained very nearby to the dock.
