Our guests this week are Russ and Cindy Varney. The Varney’s home port is St. Petersburg, Fl, and they’ve been AGLCA members since 2009. Russ and Cindy completed their Loop in 2010 on their 46’ Heritage East, Ladybug. Russ has been cruising the west coast of Florida for more than 55 years. Today, he’ll share his thoughts on crossing the Panhandle, how to make that tough decision, alternate towns to cross to and things to do if the weather isn’t cooperating for your crossing.
Dreaming of cruising the Great Loop but not quite ready for the full adventure? Want to test your boating skills on a smaller scale? The Florida Loop is an excellent way to dip your toes into long-distance cruising.
Your premier destination in the Lower Keys, Stock Island Marina offers secure dockage, modern amenities, discounts for AGLCA members, and unmatched service-delivering peace of mind for you and top-tier care for your vessel.
