July has been our go-to chartering time for the last several trips. Weather was fine. There were a couple of times when a tropical system passed over or nearby but most were tropical waves. Only once did we hunker down (didn't leave Moorings to start our charter for a day) because a tropical storm was projected to hit.
Pretty much everything was open and crowds weren't bad.

Thanks for the feedback. Any other information that would be helpful would be great too. Boatyball info ??? I hear there are some issues. Which Mooring balls are best to avoid? We don't want to end up like what happened to the Wandering Hillbilly in Jan, 2024. Our hearts are heavy for them. We were hoping to catch Alan and his crew down there while we are there. He took a private ball on a lee shore in a big North swell. Not to much more he could have done wrong. The overnight public moorings will be fine.

Sleep aboard on 7/13 and return 7/21 to change boats and then depart again 7/22 and return on 7/27 all out of Nanny Key. If we have any left over canned food and other things you may want look for us. We will be on a 464 PC pulling in on the 13th.

Longshot Steve27 - like the name by the way - but we will be on a Moorings 46PC from June 19th through July 4th. I wonder if you will be getting the boat we will be on since you have a sleep aboard the following night. If so, we try to take excellent care of the boats and always coordinate with Chris when we get back so he knows what needs to be fixed for the next guest. Have a great trip! Nice! I know our boat is just over a year old. So should be in great shape. Leave a note in the navigation table and I will let you know..LOL
